Basics

Short description: There will be two parts, (1) a course about open education and «openess» in general and (2) a system to aggregate differents blogs and information from the University.

Audience: Students and staff of the University

Goals: Bring the «open» topic to my Faculty and create a network of free resources inside the Faculty. And give back knowledge to the community.

How does it work?: The Faculty in which I studied doesn't have specific courses about openess neither new information technologies. The first goal is create a course to begin discussion about this topics. In this course I plan to create a first small network that aggregate blogs and sites of other courses. In long term this network could be the network of the entire Faculty.

Similar projects: This project has easy connections with Mary Washington project and with Open Education course. I'am interested in some relationship with communities like Seneca project has, as well. But I have to think with which community a Faculty of social science could make a relation. I suppose that I could work with Joss Winn project.

Open Technology

Open Pedagogy

I'm thinking about this. But I really like David Wiley approach at Brigham Young University
