Overview
Description
This phase provides a foundational exploration of the Open Pedagogy landscape.
During this Phase, participants will read materials to learn what Open Pedagogy is and the relationship between social justice and Open Pedagogy. Participants also experience open projects, reflect on their worldview of open, and engage in discussions about issues of knowledge production with colleagues as they begin shaping their open pedagogy journey. Participants will use the Project Design Template to analyze needs for their Open Project by reflecting on who their learners are, the role of open in their course, and their own role as faculty. This Phase includes three sessions: Sessions 1 and 3 are asynchronous, and Session 2 is synchronous on Zoom.
