OE4BW Eduscope 2022

The University of Nova Gorica (UNG) and the UNESCO Chair of Open Technologies for OER and Open Learning at the Jožef Stefan Institute (JSI) announce the Open Education for a Better World Eduscope 2022, which will take place from 20 to 22 September 2022.

OER projects developed through the 2022 OE4BW Mentoring Programme will be presented with short pitches and receive direct feedback in a panel discussion. The program will be complemented by keynote presentations on the role of Open Education in Emergencies like COVID 19, Best practices in open pedagogy,  Open Education and inclusive knowledge society – Leadership and Language Issues, Open Source Authoring Tools to Create Open Educational Resources, Visual Communication Technologies and Their Applications in Education. 

During the 3-day event, the participants will become familiar with open education design processes, methods, and tools. They will learn from OER experts and practitioners how to align open education with developmental and strategic goals. This event builds on the last four successful OE4BW Eduscopes, held as live conferences in Vipava, Slovenia, and online in 2020 and 2021. The conference aims to share ideas and experiences, create new opportunities for people to network and create together, promote diversity of goals, backgrounds, and cultures, and contribute to implementing the UNESCO recommendation on open educational resources while addressing various sustainable development goals.

At the same time, the event will host an Online Learning Symposium: “Bridging Educational Emergency to Digital Pedagogies”, a multiplier event of the BRIDGES project. The project and the event focus on the transition from Emergency Response Teaching to digital pedagogies. The project BRIDGES aims to create research-based faculty development framework and guidelines, a European Digital Hub, collaborative curriculum and content (re-)design, storage, and interactive community-based tutorials/training, including practical and pedagogical tips.

The conference aims to share ideas and experiences, create new opportunities for people to network and create together, promote diversity of goals, backgrounds, and cultures, and contribute to implementing the UNESCO recommendation on open educational resources while addressing various sustainable development goals.

We hope you will find the OE4BW 2022 Eduscope a good source of information and inspiration!
