19. Cronin on OEP “Collaborative practices that include the creation, use, and reuse of OER, as well as pedagogical practices employing participatory technologies and social networks for interaction, peer-learning, knowledge creation, and empowerment of learners” (Cronin, 2017, p18). See also Cronin & MacLaren (2018)
20. Paskevicius on OEP “Teaching and learning practices where openness is enacted within all aspects of instructional practice; including the design of learning outcomes, the selection of teaching resources, and the planning of activities and assessment. OEP engage both faculty and students with the use and creation of OER, … and support participatory student-directed projects” (Paskevicius, 2017, p. 127).
21. Weller on OEP “Open educational practice covers any significant change in educational practice afforded by the open nature of the internet” (Weller, 2017).
22.
