This page outlines the involvement of the project team with the UKOER programme

 

Over the past two years, Richard Pountney and Anna Gruszczynska have been involved in OER projects run by C-SAP (Higher Education Academy Subject Centre for Sociology, Anthropology and Politics):

-“Evaluating the Practice of Opening up Resources for Learning and Teaching in the Social Sciences” was part of the pilot phase of the UKOER programme and ran between April 2009 and April 2010. The project team explored processes around therelease and sharing of modular teaching content, with an emphasis on making educational resources more “open” and less reliant on tacit pedagogic practice by using insights gained from the process of peer review and social science knowledge production.

-“Cascading Social Science Open Educational Resources” (UKOER phase 2, September 2010-September 2011) project sought to cascade support for embedding Open Educational Resources within the social sciences curriculum, focusing on the relationship between the use of OERs and student engagement. The cascade framework developed in the context of the project is a model of release, discovery and reuse of Open Educational Resources which can be “cascaded”, that is, taken up and incorporated into new contexts by academics wishing to engage with Open Educational Resources.
