    Sharing/using other instructor's materials like videos in support of active learning .... I like this para especially: "The impact is especially great for women and others under-represented in STEM fields. Studies show that the achievement gap in STEM classes can be reduced or even annihilated for women, first-generation college students and underrepresented minority students if active learning strategies are employed. In order to make this happen in the classroom, it is effective to place some amount of foundational learning outside of class time."

OER textbooks future ELI

  • Bowen is part of a team that has developed algorithms for computers to learn how to write textbooks by extracting factual information.
  • The single most exciting aspect for him, he explains, is accessibility. The advent of free or low-cost textbooks for underserved populations — especially within STEM fields, which advance so quickly that traditional books are typically out of date the moment they’re printed — is a very exciting prospect and, as Bowen puts it, ‘a powerful idea.’
  • just who owns the copyright if the final deliverable qualifies as a derivative work?
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • if a machine writes a textbook or other resource, who is the author?
  • he platform uses intelligent algorithms that search through OER repositories and return relevant resources that can be combined, remixed, and reused in the support of specific learning goals.
  • We could even have entire learning spaces that adapt to suit the specific needs of faculty or students
