This document outlines a project at Chadron State College to transition courses to using open educational resources. The college president was convinced by a conference on open education to adopt a "Textbook Zero" model. A professor was tasked with leading the transition working with an education technology company. The project, called "Open Learning in Action", had students develop open education courses using instructional design methodology and publishing their work with Creative Commons licenses. It aimed to improve learning through collaborative design of open resources.

2. The Scenario: OpenEd 2012
CSC President Rhine attended the
OpenEd 2012 Conference.
He participated in several sessions from
leading experts speaking about Open
Educational Resources (OER).

3. The Scenario: Kaleidoscope
The Kaleidoscope Project session was particularly
compelling because its model:
• Eliminates textbook costs as an obstacle to
student success
• Uses the best of existing OER
• Increases student success through assessment-
driven enhancement of OER curriculum
• Creates a community to collaboratively evaluate
and improve open course designs using learning
analytics

4. The Scenario: Impact on Campus
President Rhine was convinced the
Kaleidoscope model could:
• Save college students money
• Reduce institutional budget constraints
• Improve instructional design in courses
• Allow for dynamic faculty collaboration
• Increase student success
Not all sources are covered by this presentation's CC BY. 4
5. The Scenario: Textbook Zero
He decided to convert the institution into
a “Textbook Zero” campus.
The impact on students meant they were
no longer required to purchase
textbooks.
The impact on faculty meant embracing
the Kaleidoscope Model using OER.

6. The Challenge
Professor McCallum, CSC Education Faculty, was
selected by administration to assist in the
transition to Textbook Zero.
Collaborating with Lumen, an ed tech company
aimed to assist institutions with OER adoption,
they facilitated an innovative project called
“Open Learning in Action.”

7. Open Learning In Action: Vision
Fostering active learning and decreasing passive learning
Transitioning the instructor role from an “authority” directing
instruction to a “facilitator” supporting active learning
Increasing educational relevance
Improving the quality of student learning through
collaborative “real-world” opportunities
Assisting future educators with building marketable
knowledge, skills, and dispositions for excellence in teaching
Not all sources are covered by this presentation's CC BY. 7
8. Open Learning in Action: Student Role
Upon completion of this project, students will:
• Establish Personal Learning Networks to create
connections, collaborate, and contribute to their
professional development and knowledge
• Understand the implications of open licensing in education
• Develop a SPED course using instructional design
methodology and OER
• Create a course in Instructure’s Canvas platform
• Publish their work with Creative Commons license to share
with the open community

Backwards Design
Not all sources are covered by this presentation's CC BY. 30
31. Outcome-Based Education
Aka Mastery Education, Performance-Based Education
Outcomes = skills and knowledge measured empirically
through observations/experimentation
Constructivist, student-centered learning philosophy
No requirements or specifications for any particular style
of teaching or learning; however, discourages
traditional model of direct instruction

32. Instructional Design
Process of developing education and training materials
Includes “ADDIE” framework (below)
Not all sources are covered by this presentation's CC BY. 32
33. Backwards Design
Founded by Wiggins & McTigue in
Understanding by Design
Begins with the end in mind: What do you want
students to know?
Effective method for teachers who think in
terms of what they wish to achieve
Not all sources are covered by this presentation's CC BY. 33
34. Backwards Design Model
1. Identify Desired Results - Use Standards as Guide
What do you want students to know, understand, and be
able to do? (Outcomes)
2. Determine Acceptable Evidence
How will you know students have achieved results and
met standards? (Assessments)
3. Plan Learning Experiences & Instruction
Identify concepts, principles, processes (Content &
Learning Activities)
Not all sources are covered by this presentation's CC BY. 34
35. Backwards Design Application
Course Learning Outcomes
CLO
What students know by the end of the course
MLO
Module Learning Outcomes
What students know by the end of the module
LA Learning Activities
Opportunities for students to demonstrate knowledge

39. Backwards Design: Evaluation
In course evaluation (during and at course
completion) teachers use data generated by
students to drive decision-making
This helps teachers improve the course overtime
Empirically, teachers know where students are
struggling and how best to improve the course

40. Multiple Measures of Assessment
Not all sources are covered by this presentation's CC BY. 40
41. Psychometrics
We can’t open our students’ brains to see what
they know, but we can give them
opportunities to tell us what they know
Assessment results yield both signal and noise
Rather than give one big assessment, use
multiple measures to tease out the signal
from the noise

42. The Pixel Analogy
Why are multiple measures of assessment
important?
Watch this video:
http://www.pcworld.com/article/2027906/chromeboo
k-pixel-the-google-pc-weve-been-waiting-for-.html
Think of multiple measures of assessment like the
pixels that make up the entire digital picture. Aim to
see the whole picture of the student, instead of just
a few pixels.

43. Multiple Measures of Assessment
Formative Examples
Assists in modifying teaching and • Muddiest Point
learning activities for student
success • Minute Paper
• Concept Test
Typically involves qualitative • Directed Paraphrase
feedback (rather than scores) for
both students and teacher • RSQC2 – Recall, Summarize,
focusing on details of content and Question, Comment, Connect
performance • Transfer and apply
• Anecdotal Records
