Open Educator Factory

I registered and completed the questionnaire, here are my results:

These were not surprising given my commitment to OEP but they were based just on my answers to the questions. I was surprised though to still get a list of recommendations which I was eager to investigate. Many were already links and suggestions I have engaged with (including finding out about open badges - I have been using these for some time). I did try to use the Finding and Using Open resources game but unfortunately it uses Flash and I don't! Also I think than given the pace of change and the abundance of useful resources for developing open teaching it may be better to curate a hashtag which can provide a direct connection to a Community of practice rather than links which will inevitably need updating regularly. 

Whilst I was working through today's activity the unit leader Maureen got in touch with me directly on my twitter channel - this is one of the best and most powerful examples of modelling open practice to me. I found a new contact who was ready to connect in real time just when her work was in my mind,  a great example of the power of open practice to sustain and grow a community.

Great to connect with you Teresa and thanks for your comments regarding the questionnaire. You've inspired me to circle back to Terry's unit on tools to see whether the Finding and Using Open Resources game might be re-imagined using H5P or another accessible platform.......
