 Welcome back everyone, we will start the session the final Q and A session right now. This session we will be going visiting RCs, so RCs can use the hand race option to ask the queries. I will be coming over and visiting each RC, we have Professor Fatak coming joining us from Saharadeya College of Engineering, we will be visiting him in another 5 to 10 minutes. Let me first start the interaction with RC1082, Hindustan Institute of Technology. Hello sir, good afternoon sir. Good afternoon. Sir, yesterday I have uploaded RC02, but my peer give zero marks due to not open the file. Can this link? Unfortunately, okay so this is a question regarding peer review process. So let me give a generic question as in, so the there is some problem with the original file that got uploaded. So it could be that either it is not opening correctly or it could be that permissions were not provided for that particular file due to which your peer reviewer is not able to see that submission. Now in this case unfortunately the peer reviewer cannot have any other option other than giving you zero for all the different criterias. One possible mechanism through which this could be rectified is through the mentors. Now this is first of all you should ensure that you provide before any submission you provide, you check the submission, you carefully enter whatever you are submitting, you ensure that sufficient access permissions have been provided for all the documents, all the websites before uploading. Now the only case over here is if the mentor is evaluating your submission and is able to give you a better review. That is the only place where we will be accepting this, but this is an entirely offline process and it has to be addressed by the mentor. Sir can I give this document to my mentor? Yes, you should be providing and you should be clearly providing your mentor why somebody has reviewed you as zero. Through WhatsApp sir, through WhatsApp. You can email your mentor. Okay sir. Yeah. So let me now go to RC1068 Thakur College of Engineering. Ma'am. I am Rashmita from Thakur College of Engineering. Yes, good afternoon ma'am. Sir, my query is about the peer review. My question is that I got zero mark in RCA02 because the link is not opened by the peer review side. Again. So can I send the link again? No, so send the link again. Why was the link not opening earlier? Sir, it is opening sir. Okay. So after I reviewed three peers and I give them 10 or 11 out of 12, but my score is zero at the time I got. Okay. So what we can see again this is an issue similar to the earlier one. So whenever there is a query or some issues in RCA like it has been incorrectly reviewed or there is somebody has not reviewed your RCA at all, all these cases this is the place where the mentors are very important. So you should be providing your RCA, problematic RCA's to the mentor and the mentor will consult it all such problematic cases and provide IIT Bombay with their review of your assignment. Whether the score is increased or? Yeah, so we will be considering the mentor's score. So the exact mechanisms like so for example if it is a initial error from the participant then we will apply some penalty because they have not read the instructions clearly and they have uploaded. So in those cases the mentor will provide us with the specific feedback as to why there is a discrepancy and based on that we will take a median score and we will be updating these scores. So it will be a completely offline process. Okay. Okay. Thank you. Okay. It will be reflected only in the final calculation of the grades. Okay. Thank you. Yeah. So for all the RC's who are having issues with peer assessment this is exactly why you have your mentors with you. So your mentors is your first that is the first place the first collaborating unit. So all these mentors are explicitly there for assisting you in this purpose. Now in case there is an inactive member mentor then do let us know because there are other active mentors who will be happy to help you. So this is how the idea of collaboration we are explicitly using the idea of collaboration between different faculty from across the colleges and the mentors from the previous FDP are more than happy to collaborate with you, provide you guidelines and I am sure that most active mentors will be more than happy to review your assessments and we will be able to help you out in taking even the OER further. Okay. So please make use of your mentor, interact with him regularly even after the FDP because FDP is just one place but after that any discussions we want this community to grow we want this community to interact with each other collaborate with each other even after the end of FDP that is the vision behind these kind of programs. Let me now go to RC1190, Symbiosis Institute. I have few questions starting from RC1 sir, RC1 the problem was the peer review I got a bad grade I do not know why I have followed all the instructions. And the reviewer I can see that have not attended the last ABU face to face session. So the reviewer commented like you have not provided URL which was not the requirement. So now my suggestion I have one suggestion sir, so you said that you will have you will give some penalty to the reviewer who give these kind of marking. Yes. Can you send a mail, can you send a mail to all the participants that you will do that because if I am not attending any of the face to face interaction I do not know what you are going to do. So I request you to write a mail at least to all the participants that if you incorrectly do you will be penalized that is point number one. Okay. Yeah, the suggestion is very well taken and specifically for OER we are actually going to so tomorrow's session by process Anamuti is specifically on improving the peer review process. And after the session we will be sending out an email about the general queries regarding peer review and we will be sending out a detailed instruction and specifically for peer review we will be very strict in enforcing the penalty system that we are we have talked about. Yes sir. So I request you to send a mail because sir those who are not attending the face to face session. Yes. They are not aware what is happening. Sure, sure. So that is my. So we will actually incorporate that in the courseware itself rather than sending the mail we will put that in the courseware which makes sense more sense rather than sending out an email. Now another query I have RCA2. Okay. Which are subject by tomorrow. So if I look at the rubric clearly. Okay. There is no points, no points are given for creative license whether it is creative license or it is just like standard YouTube video. So no points are given or written clearly. So is there anything can be done? So. I know it is there in the instructions. So okay the question that has been asked is there are no specific points for creative commons licensing in RCA2. This has been explicitly put because for the past in the past FDP itself we were very clear as to why creative commons license has to be given and we had a specific activity where the creative commons license was evaluated. Now for OER also we will do the same process but just for RCA2 since the major idea was to look at how they create the out of class activity just because of that we have not given specific focus on the creative commons license. But if you find in your review that the resources are not in creative commons you can comment over there. We will not penalize participants specifically because for flip classroom it may so happen that they may use a video and they may get permission. They may get written permission from the original creator. So even if the video is not in creative commons some what do you say creators may provide permission to use for its fair use in education. So even that is possible. So if there is a written permission then penalizing somebody for not putting in creative commons license video is not correct. That is why it was not put in for the RCA2. Now my third question that is related to the quiz what happened last week. Okay. It has a lot of subjectivity. It has two issues sir. Point number one the knowledge quiz what we have appeared. That's the question one was related to domain, domain specific. Okay. That one. So now the problem is that if I am not from let's say that particular domain background then it is very difficult for me to understand those things. So is it, don't you think that I mean whatever assignment we have should be generalize kind of thing not domain specific. No so if you actually look at the question. The question was I think about appness of the thing phase and I think it is something like that right. The question one that you were mentioning. Sir what I am saying is the question says that it has to deal with some create level in Euclidean distance and there is no mention of create level in any of the videos that we have seen. So how do we understand what is the create level in Euclidean distance and how do we answer such questions. First of all that is not our domain and secondly we have no guidance on that. Okay. Can you repeat this question for me if it is possible. Because it was a randomized quiz so there is a big repository. So I have so I understand the problem that if the domain is not familiar you will have issues with answering the question but I believe most of the questions were put in as generic questions. So there will be some scenario the context would be some scenario and you were asked explicitly look into the pedagogy and not exactly into the domain. So some of the questions which were provided I think had this particular what do you say nature. Sir the question is which of the following question belong to create level for the topic Euclidean distance. Now what is this create level is nowhere mentioned. Okay. So this is a valid concern. Okay. So what you can do is the alternate that I can suggest is there will be a final set of so if people are having this issue that some of the knowledge quizzes were very generic. So what we will do like in FTP 101 we will select the best we will provide an alternate mechanism through which incorrect answers you will not be penalized because of incorrect answers specifically because some errors in the question. And also same goes for questions and expectations as well. Like nowhere I have seen in the videos in the research papers which says that for peer instruction you have to give 1, 2, 3 percent of the weighted only and that will correct answers when I have marked them. Can you repeat it? In one of the question in assimilation quiz there is something which says that there is one question on a person giving a peer instruction in the class and giving a very high weightage for it and one of the correct option to that question was that the person should have given 1, 2, 3 percent of the weightage but is it mentioned anywhere that for peer instruction we have to specifically have 1, 2, 3 percent? So it's in the peer instruction best practices and guidelines give low weightage is provided. There is a generic statement low weightage, right? Yeah, so there is an option which says lower down the weightage and there is an option which says give 1, 2, 3 percent weightage and both of them are correct. Yes. I mean we are unnecessarily losing out on points then. So I believe it is a check box, check box where more than one answer is correct, correct? Right, right. Yeah, so both the options mean the same thing. So give 1, 2, 3 percent or lower down the weightage it means the same, right? Only problem is 1, 2, 3 according to you means very low, not low. That's the problem, that's why the subject that comes in. Okay, interpretation. Okay, so we will devise some mechanism through which these kind of ambiguities will not affect your overall grade. Like what we did in FDP 101, we will devise some mechanism through which so there are multiple knowledge quizzes, reflection quizzes and assimilation quizzes that's going to come up in the coming week. So we will ensure that there are more generic questions and you are not, you are not put in an ambiguous state because of the wordings in the question. I have one more concern sir. Now while creating a team for our open OER, let's say, hypothetically let's say under any RC, there are 10 members, hypothetically. Okay. And three teams are made, so 3 plus 3 plus 3. There is one member remaining. So that one member should be depend on maybe some other R. So do you think we should allow that one to collaborate under RC or under other member? So we have given that instruction. So if there is a single member and there are already 3 members, we allow in that particular case, we allow a 4 member team. So it is there clearly written in the team formation guidelines. If you actually look into the OER creation activity, we have clearly provided this instruction in very specific case where there is one participant who is left out without any other team within the RC. In that case, only we will allow 4 member team. But within that 4 member team should have only one under one mentor. Is that a mandate? No, it is not a mandate. So we what we are encouraging is that people be physically have physical contact with each other. That's why we asked people to form teams within RC. Now it may so happen that within the same RC you can have multiple mentors. So it is like having a guide and a co-guide for a project. So there are multiple guides for you in your project. So you the people who are having multiple mentors are in an advantage position because they get multiple people to help you out. Let me just reiterate the OER team formation guidelines. See for all for the benefit of all the RCs supposing that there is an individual team member who is left out because he does not the team size is 3 and he is not able to get a team with maximum 3 members or suppose his discipline is not matching with other team members. In this particular case, he is allowed to join any one of the existing teams provided they all can work together and create a common open educational resource. In cases where this is not possible, in those cases, IT Bombay will try to look for a perfect match between the person who is the single person with other RCs. So there are around 130 people who are without teams right now as per the survey that we you have filled. So in this case, what has happened is what we are going to do is we are going to allot them into specific team by looking into their domain or looking into physical proximity between the participants. Now we will form a team and we will provide you with the information that so and so is your teammate and you can start interacting. So this interaction can happen over emails or can happen through multiple channels. Only thing is you just have to have a documentation of these interactions. So this you can upload along with the OER documentation that you finally create as part of the OER assignment. Let me take one more question from another RC. RC 1001, Maulana Asad National Institute of Technology Bhopal. So the letter clearly says that all its content is in PTO common license. And the letter is available to the program to the committee of NPTEL project as a proof of the change of license in 2012. So from that letter it is clear that all these things is in PTO common and any NPTEL video can be used for the RC to be assigned without any permission. That is what I understand. Can you clarify that? Okay, so I think it is so I heard bits and pieces but I am just repeating the main question. So it is regarding NPTEL videos and their license. So apparently there is a letter which states that all NPTEL videos are in creative commons. So if that is already there you can just put a reference to this letter saying that as per the so and so letter all these videos are in creative commons because sometimes it may so happen that the YouTube channel creators may actually forget to put creative commons license. So people who are accessing these resources through YouTube will not understand whether it is in creative commons or not. So at least for the videos that IT Bombayx is creating even if the license has not been changed to creative commons at the start of the video we actually display in the title of the video we display that it is in creative commons by share a like. So if that is also available you can say that this video is in creative commons. I hope that this is what the sir from MA NIT was asking me just now. I am unable to hear you sir but if such a reference is available that all the NPTEL videos are in creative commons you can put a reference to that and say that as per this particular letter all resources in NPTEL is in creative commons. That would be perfect. I request you sir. Yeah. I request you please issue this instruction on your website. Otherwise what may happen that the viewer will not understand and we may penalize. Okay. We issue this instruction that all NPTEL videos are in creative commons. So NPTEL video has been used also through assignment that it should be treated in the creative commons and the candidates should not be penalized. Okay. So if you can just share the letter with me definitely I will put in so to all participants since NPTEL is a national project most of its resources are in creative commons. So once I get please do not and specifically we do not have any penalty for we do not have any rubric criteria in the current RCA 2 for creative commons license. So you will not be penalized for not what do you say for not having a creative commons license. All the criteria are about the length of the video the objectives and the instructions not anything there is nothing related to NPTEL videos. If you can share the specific letter or the specific declaration we will put that in the course where through which all the participants will understand that NPTEL videos are in creative commons and the moment they use NPTEL videos then the creative commons issue will not be present. My user ID is MK Mishra. I have already shared this letter on the discussion forum. Okay great. So I will check the discussion forum and I will put that in the courseware itself. I will put that in the courseware itself. So even my understanding was that most of the NPTEL videos are in creative commons that is why it was put in the flip classroom activity constructor itself the video repositories we had mentioned NPTEL as one of the national repository. Thank you sir. The videos that have been developed before the 2008 were all copyrighted. It is mentioned in the video. This decision was taken in 2012. All the videos are in the creative commons. Okay. So I mean MK Mishra discussion forum. Sure. Check that later and we will issue this. Sure. So I will check the discussion forum and I will update the courseware with the specific instruction. Thank you for providing this providing this information sir. Let me transfer control to RC 1358 Saharadeya college from where professor Fartakar will be addressing all the participants. Over to you sir. Thank you very much Dr. Good evening to one and all. I am very happy and delighted to be physically among all number of participants at college. College is a different thing. Barely large number of students qualified and come to the second class. It is good. Of course I want them to do this as they will be there in a moment. If we go backwards, we need to find the government government. I am happy that there is this people are aware of the issues involved. Sadly, the best of knowledge, there is no specific extent of the educational crisis. It clearly says that all unethical recorded videos are available in that area. It was a clear move with that direction. The last comment, impetal videos are concerned. It is not crystal clear whether the impetal videos are actually under creative commons or not. All the side says is that they are freely available for academic use. It is much different from saying that they are under creative commons. We will speak to Professor Anju Tangraj once again with the national coordinator for NPTEL, Professor Bhaskar Ramurthy and get clarification. I am very happy that there is a lot of discussion and debate on these issues. The second point where I am not very happy, but I am a bit amused, is a large amount of discussion that happened on people losing marks for one reason or the other. I say I was amused because this is exactly what happens when our students come to us and try on our shoulders saying that they should not have lost this one mark there or two marks there. In IIT we hold special sessions which are called CRIP sessions. It means the students are permitted to come and shout at us, crib about it and try to convince us how they must get one mark more. The moral of the story is that we should now understand how important correct the size and reasonable marking is in any situation and implement that when we assess and evaluate our students paper. So please remember this while you do that. Having said it I would still say that the discussion which has resulted out of the wrong corrections etc is very useful because it is bringing out into the open the issues related to one correct formulation of the quiz correct statements being made two, the problems with the peer evaluation and peer assessment three, the mistakes that can happen if a particular assignment cannot be opened by someone all these are important issues and I think the discussion that has just happened will permit all participants and the course teams to take corrective measures. I would like to mention two very very important points which have once again emerged during this discussion. We are in that leg of the second FDP where OER has to be created and we deliberately want the OER creation to be a collaborative activity. Although the rules have been formulated as my colleague Jackson explained the rules are important but they are not sacrosanct. So instead of three members there are four members or whatever any exceptional case we should be able to deal with and we will deal with that without jeopardizing the chances and opportunities available for every individual partner. Having said that I will reemphasize the importance of working collaboratively and collectively where each member works as hard as anybody else and all together take collective responsibility on whatever they create that is exactly the spirit which we wish to inculcate in our students when we use these techniques by impeaching them. I will reiterate what I have said earlier that it's not in the coming in the existing semester but do plan for the next semester not necessarily to use everything that you have studied completely in one full course that you teach but pre-plan at least one or two topics in which you will create or assemble adequate open source resources video clips, pages, action activities and so on which will assemble on your local servers including some lectures which you have recorded or some OER components which get created through this effort. You will announce to your students at the very beginning of the next semester that look such and such topic one or two will be discussed during let's say third week of February or first week of March and we will be using the flip classroom approach to learn these topics. Believe me that pre-announcement with the pre-uploading of all the video material the reading material etc etc will permit you and students together to discover the importance of using this methodology of active learning this will also give you adequate practice will permit you to understand what works and what does not work and where you need to do a course correction and then in subsequent semester you may attempt to do so with a complete course from start to finish I would submit that would be an ideal way of progressing towards adopting this new pedagogy in the process however please remember that your contribution to this FDP will not end in the FDP area you will continue to contribute in at least two significant ways the first and most important is that as you roll out some of these techniques in your own teaching your learning and your experiences must be communicated to all of us so that the entire community benefits from your individual services good, bad or ugly all experiences must be shared so that collectively we become wiser for the subsequent usefulness the second important point is you are now familiar with the mentor-mentee model there are several mentors and their group of participants who are being mentored by them who have given a feedback that they were very happy with this process and this process has helped create a very cohesive small community which can interact with each other and enhance one's model we do hope to continue this approach in the subsequent rollout of these FDP and the second way in which you can contribute is by coming out among the top performers in this FDP for which unfortunately the marks which you score will matter that is one important experience but I do hope that we will get at least 150 to 200 or maybe 300 more top performers who are willing to continue to work with us as associate faculty and mentors in the subsequent editions of this FDP I am sure that I will get more than 300 in addition if it so happens that you are extremely keen to work as future associate faculty but for some reason your name does not appear among the top performers please feel free to write a special email to me giving you giving me a statement of purpose as to why you think you can be a good mentor and we would consider all such cases on an exceptional basis the reason I am making these announcements is this is the last time we are interacting subsequently you will all be working in your themes and submitting things but please remember one thing you would benefit to differing degrees through this FDP please try and do the following try to talk to your friends a. your colleagues from your own institution who are not done this FDP and b. your friends who are in the teaching community in other colleges at least spend half an hour describing to them how the teaching learning processes are changing globally and how as teachers you could make your teaching more effective if you apply experiment and follow these techniques you are the first wave of teachers who are at least exposed to these new pedagogies we have 3,5,000 teachers and to change their mindset is going to be one of the main activities that we shall be undertaking together with your help and with the help of remote center so please remember to build effective collaborative communities for everything that we do whether it is mentoring a group of students whether it is creating high quality OER content or used by others or whether it is simply discussing some specific issues as a community where the discussion goes on for about 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks maybe using either as a key or a specially prepared community website or a portal which we are building whichever way please remember doing great work oneself is of course important and will have its recognition but doing great work collectively in groups is far more important and is likely to be far more meaningful to this society and is likely to be far better recognized by the society thank you so much all the best thank you sir on that positive note let me now go ahead to the next RC I hope all of you are sufficiently motivated by what Professor Fartuck was just saying see the vision of these FDPs is therefore to change the belief and attitude of all the teachers and instill the idea of collaboration which is so essential if you want to move forward in tomorrow's sessions Professor Shridhara here and Professor Sahana Murthy would be discussing this even further because we have also have research evidence which talks of how collaboration has improved general teaching learning practice within educational institutions or group of teachers as well so the next RC is KIT College of Engineering good afternoon sir I am Priyanka Gulkanee I have actually there are three parts in my question one is as OER my team will prepare either FC or online quiz or a question repository using Moodle so we would use Moodle we will create a Moodle account using Genomeo but my question is whether the Moodle account should be in the name of the topic that we have chosen or the course or it should be the team leaders Moodle this is first part sir the second part is the second part is in addition to the question repository if our team likes to also upload LED video or PPT is that okay or PDF files as an additional OER that is the second part sir and the third part is whether we have to upload our Moodle account URL site, team leaders website that's all sir there are three questions it's regarding the actual OER process on the final OER process so let me answer it one by one the first question was they are creating the OER that is from this RC is based on a course material that they are going to upload in Moodle there will be some course materials there will be some online quizzes associated with it the question is whether the course account should be in the name of the course or should be in the name of team leader so over here my advice is it could be anything both of them are perfectly fine so like the instructions that you have to follow is that your reviewer should be able to access the course resources as long as that is satisfied you can use any name or any account for creation of the resource regarding the second question can they upload additional OER resources please feel free to add additional amount of resources but see the idea is even if you do a small activity do it cleanly because the OER documentation is also is also an add-on to the rather it's not just creation of the resource you also have to document how you need the resource so the moment you are adding more resources you will have to spend more time in the documentation so just estimate how much time you will need for creation of all these resources and also have a look at the due dates since we are towards the end of the FDP we cannot have too much relaxation in the duty so the as I said earlier by 11th evening we will start submissions for we will be giving you specific instructions what to provide where it should be what all things should be ensured all these things will be provided on 11th evening and you will get another 8 days for submission so you have started creation of OER but for submissions you have only from 11th to 18th so what you should ensure is that you have sufficient time to complete the documentation of the resource till this due date is over and it does not end with this FDP you can continue contributing with OERs and you can provide us the feedback about how this OER has actually been utilised by your students so we look forward for more interaction from you even after the end of the FDP where you tell us how this was effective the good bad and the ugly of the open educational resources that you have created and your final question regarding where it should be there ideally it should be present in the team leaders website towards the end of the FDP once the reviews are all over all the participants can upload this OER in their own respective website as well hope I have made I have answered all your questions let me now go to RC 1065 Pinolex Academy good evening sir my question is related with peer assessment I got zero marks in the peer assessment I have also mailed regarding this to my main team but my question is if the my mentor is not going to respond my email can I proceed towards the another mentor ok so the question is so this is a valid question let me repeat it so that all other participants are able to hear the clarification so the question is that ok there is a peer review issue and the issue has been escalated to the mentor as per our instruction but what happens if the mentor is not responding to your queries so we have we have seen lot of these cases being reported to our workshop team so ideally in this case it would of course your review will be given to another mentor but it would be better that it is channeled through our workshop team because then we know to which active mentor we can actually forward your query to one more question sir regarding OER creation do you use the Moodle account for OER which is which we have created in previous 101 FDP yes no so the question is can they use the accounts that was created in FDP 101 the answer is a big yes and ideally we would want you to use the same websites the same Moodle accounts because FDP 101 FDP 201 are linked FDPs they are not two different FDPs it is the same course the first one focusing on the technology and the second one focusing on the pedagogy so ideally that is why the cohorts are also the same the mentor is also the same almost all the process are remaining the same only thing is one new activity has been created which is the OER activity which has to be done in a group so feel free to use the same account you need not create a new account Moodle account or a word wordpress account for doing the FDP 201 next activity one more question good evening sir my question is related with the video lane can we use a video which having less than 3 minutes as long as the video satisfies your learning purpose for which you have selected the video you can use any length of the video I mean only thing if it is a longer video ensure that instructions are provided on breaking it up watching it in multiple points so let's say there is a 10 minute video you first ask the students to watch the first 5 minutes of video then answer a particular question and then followed by the remaining 5 minutes of video and followed by some question because it is important that while they do not be just passive listeners they need to do activity and always and research has proven that shorter videos are much more better than longer videos but if you are still taking longer videos it is always you should provide clear instruction as to what small portion within the long video they should actually look at so answer to your question if the video length is less than 3 minutes absolutely no problem yeah let me now go to the next RC this is RC 1140 Shastra University good evening Professor JK from RC we have couple of questions to ask you number one is that our flip classroom activity is basically humanities based while creating flip classroom activity on communication skills the strategy that we need to follow slightly differs from that of science and engineering concepts so in this regard could you please elaborate on the rulings that we need to follow and it is a sincere request from our side that if you could find an expert in the same specification who could elaborate on the use of ICT for us we will be really glad so the are there any other questions ma'am yes one more based on your instructions we have initiated the creation of wiki spaces for RC in this regard could you please tell us the elaborate on the assignment that we need to perform is there one more question yes yes sir yeah good evening sir good evening I have a question related to the moodle preparation one of the previous RC members inquired whether the moodle should be in the group's name or in the leader's name can it also be in one of the participants moodle no problem ok yeah the answer is yes no issues as long as you provide a reviewer a user login and password for accessing the course so that they can review the material there is no problem in whose name the course the moodle courses for the who the owner of the moodle courses sir can I ask another question please yeah you were we have to be very careful with plagiarism yes now when we take the material we would naturally be drawing it either from textbooks or from online resources is it allowed for us to use such texts or should we rewrite everything on our own ok I will answer the queries one after the other I have answered the fourth query so let me start with the first query so the first query is about people from humanities or arts or other non stem disciplines so stem stands for science technology engineering and mathematics so typically the instructions for flip classrooms slightly differ so can there be any specific guidelines as to what the out of class and what the in class activity is so if you recollect the previous interaction we had mentioned that humanities or arts is the subject where flip classroom so they have been traditionally using flip classroom methodologies throughout let us say for the past 50 or 100 years because they will be providing some activity for the students to do outside and once they come the students come to the classroom there will be lot of active discussions role plays and other kind of strategies happen in the classroom in a humanities classroom specifically for social sciences history so lot of these active learning strategies have actually emerged from these kind of disciplines so cooperative strategies etc are very popular within the arts teachers especially in K to 12 curriculum so some of the general guidelines for flip classroom strategy will still remain the same so if you are not giving a video resource outside the only instruction is that make sure that whatever resource you are providing it is not too long so do not give a 40 page book for students to read rather ask them to read a specific portions within a chapter or a one or two key topics that you want to discuss within the classroom so this should be sufficiently short and you should intersperse it with a particular activities so instead of video LED what you can have is after reading first paragraph in this particular topic think about this particular problem and write what you think about this write the pros and cons of a particular strategy or a particular approach so these could be the ways in which you can introduce the LED, LBD activities in a humanities classroom now specifically since it was about video integration because we wanted the technology integration to happen that is why we have given a rubric where you are asked to look into video resources as well but for practice you can take the same guideline so replace videos with your content whatever is there it should not be too long it should be sufficiently short it should be intersperse with activities and there should be some incentives for students to do this activity there should be clear instructions and then the in class activities you should encourage more active participation and regarding specialists in use of ICT I hope there will be top performers emerging from the current group because we have lot of so I remember that in past FDP we have a mentor from who is taking Sanskrit so if somebody from Sanskrit can emerge as a top performer and can be a mentor then there is I see no problem in a humanities teacher also coming up and being the specialist because as professor what I said this is the first wave you are among the first people who are being exposed to these kind of ideas and specialists we are expecting specialists to emerge among you and that is why specifically we are looking at top performers and mentors so check whether there is a mentor with humanities specialization some of the mentors web pages were given in FDP 101x so what I will do is I will ask the content team to populate the mentors web pages once again in the FDP 201x so that you can browse those resources and find somebody within your domain and you can start interacting with them there was another question regarding so I think I have answered 3 of your major questions let me come back to the final question about licenses so there is something so as professor Fatak said creative commons license and free and fair usage of materials for educational purposes are two different things so if you have permission or if the book states that these materials can be used for free and fair used within educational settings then you can use it but give the specific textbook that you are referring to because do not forget to cite these sources so suppose you took a publisher's textbook some author's textbook as per the statement provided by this so it is essentially like how you write research papers one possible way is paraphrasing but if there is too much content which cannot be paraphrased what you can provide is you can check this particular book in this particular chapter the author has specified specific instructions regarding how how to do a particular activity or how this and this answer could be reached so this is one way of using free and fair educational content educational content in a free and fair manner only for educational purposes so I hope I have answered all your queries by now thank you so much professor Narke for the elaborate explanation thank you very much my pleasure RC 1192 MGM's college of engineering Nanded hello good evening sir good evening first of all I want to say thank you for creating such a wonderful platform to improve the teaching performance and as well as creating interest in this field sir so my I am asking two questions here sir so first question is related to the resource creation assignment graded one resource creation assignment graded one sir we have done all these ICT brings changes in our own classroom this this we have attempted sir and lab assessment and we have I have gone through the WordPress and Moodle site also and I have created all these things but when I am because of this busy schedule academic schedule and some of the site visit we have held in the department so I am not able to put in the 21st September and I have just put it in the late night but it was not accepted by the website sir so it is my genuine request to you that sir we have created very genuine work for that and please consider and give us chance for the improvement okay what is your second query second query query is regarding to the OER sir in OER team team has created wiki spaces to the individual one or group leader has created wiki is own okay so let me answer the second question first so wiki spaces or wiki is one more technology that I exposed you to while and I have I have put an analogy as to how group projects can be utilized so OER as a group project and how you can use this for OER creation so it is not mandatory that so you are not required to use wiki spaces for uploading your OER so that is that is not required but however if you are planning to use wiki spaces please feel free go ahead start using it but if you if it is your first time using wiki spaces it will take some time for you to completely understand all the affordances all the features and you will have to spend lot more time in understanding this technology so one advice to you is not specifically use wiki spaces for OER but start exploring wiki spaces and see how it can work within group project by if you want to provide group projects for your students how to use it maybe for next semester or next academic year you can use wiki spaces so by that time you so because without repeated practice it is impossible to master any technology or any pedagogy so you need to have repeated practice and for that we have exposed you to wiki spaces regarding your first question please ensure that you submit RCA2 on time we will definitely look at some mechanisms through which we can address most of the queries regarding due date submission got missed so as professor Fatak said we will definitely consider all your requests but ensure that you adhere to the due dates and instructions in the coming weeks as well ok one more questions from our RCA center good evening sir good evening sorry it is regarding the OER team documentation work ok so what exactly you are expecting from the team in the documentation work so what is expected I have actually given an OER example so if you actually look at the course handouts there is an OER example submission so within the OER guideline document what we are expecting is complete process documentation so details about the OER that you create the design decisions that you took why a specific video why a specific so why the specific so suppose you are developing a video resource why a particular script is chosen how did you actually do the specific technology all these kind of design decisions and technology decisions have to be documented along with that you will have to provide a description of the OER so how to access this OER is it available in youtube go to youtube watch this video so it is like somebody if your OER documentation is given to any other teacher they should be able to create their own OER from this and also evaluate the effectiveness of that OER that is what the purpose behind OER documentation so it actually tracks all the process behind OER creation we have to upload this documentation in Moodle also so the exact instruction on what has to be uploaded will be provided when the OER submission starts so the idea is that you will be submitting OER documentation and it will be evaluated by the peers your OER documentation will have details of your OER as well so they will go through the entire document and they will understand how you created the OER and then they will evaluate you they will look at your OER and then evaluate you so the document is the thing that is going to be peer reviewed one more question in OER team suppose there are three members of the same field so if three are of them are interested to prepare the video so we will have the three videos or we three have to present or discuss on one topic how it is to be work out sir it is up to the team member so if three videos see what is an open educational resource open educational resource is a resource that can be used by any other teacher learner any other person freely and openly so if you are having three videos and you put it in a website saying that these three are the video resources that would be perfectly fine but you also have to document how did you come up with this particular videos what was the decisions that you had taken all these have to be additionally provided in the OER documentation that is all so three videos or three question papers all these answer keys all these are good enough but the OER activity is meant for collaboration so there should be some connect between video one, video two and video three such that it could be taken up by another person otherwise there is no meaning of doing OER as a group activity ok ok thank you sir ok let me now go to supreme knowledge foundation 4-3 good afternoon sir I have one query OER creation my query is that given in the guidelines there were four points provided that what are the what all we can prepare in an OER now in the third point there was one course portfolio which we can prepare so I want to know that in this course portfolio can we cover the entire subject or just we have to concentrate on a particular topic to create them is what exactly they are in course portfolio that I want to understand ok so the question is there is a example as an example OER we have provided the idea of course portfolio now the question is should the course portfolio be for the entire course or for the OER creation they can focus on specific topic so over here my advice is that it is always better that you focus on a smaller topic because you will have only limited time to submit your OER create and submit your OER if you select a complete course you will need lot of time to actually create unless and otherwise you have already all these resources available with you if you want to create newly I would always recommend you to focus on one specific topic and do it at a small level but do it very thoroughly so the quality it is not the quantity that is important it is the quality that is important so all the examples so the question is should this so we have provided example OER so should the example OER be taken as the final word so the answer is no you can do these are just examples so if you want to mix one or two one plus three you want to create a completely new OER because that is perfectly valid only look at the definition the definition of OER is it is a digital content that is freely available to use and reuse for teachers, learners, researchers or any other person who want to learn that is the only definition that we will look at sir I have one more query suppose we want I have kept the entire website in creative commons now whenever I am uploading any document in that website then that document has to be separately kept in creative commons so whatever document will come in that website all will automatically apply creative commons it is always a good practice to have individual resources separately marked out as in creative commons because we do not know how somebody will access your resource suppose your resource is taken by somebody else by downloading from your website and if the creative commons license is not there and they start using it for they convert it to their proprietary resources then it will not serve its purpose right so it is always better that you for each and every resource you separately put the license it is always advisable ok sir my colleague has another question yeah so good evening sir good evening sir the question is regarding this RCA one where the question was that identify the changes that use of ICT has brought in your own classroom correct so yeah so there in our college in I am from Humanities department and we have been we are using software called the interactive software integrated learning system ok so my question is that here we are using this polling the hand raise and one to one interaction one to many interaction correct so according to me I feel that these are the are these the evidences of examples of ICT are these the examples of ICT because during the peer review my peer review has said that there went any ICT tools that I have used this so I would like to get an answer from you is that are these the ICT tools used in the interactive software integrated learning system that was given to us by IIT Kharagpur ok over to you sir ok the question is they are using a specific software which is which has ok the name is ILS and they are using multiple functionalities of that software so essentially this is actually so if you are providing both information and communication is happening with that particular software it is essentially an information and communication technology so anything that you use the feature then it is a valid ICT use so it may so happen that your reviewer is not aware of what do you say ILS system and it is that ignore that particular thing which actually created wrong review so next time when you actually put in these kind of resources what you can mention that ILS is something similar to Moodle or a learning management system or some equivalent system where multiple things are possible and we have used all these affordances of that particular ILS system then the answer would be clear to the audience let me go to 1316 Dronacharya College of Engineering sir good afternoon sir sir I have one question related to RCA02 whether making the slide while making the slide for the group member the topics would be same or not this is the number one question and number two while creating the OER creation is it be any specific instruction for that that we have to choose the WordPress or Google site or like that or while making the videos the all videos should be made by own or we can choose other videos also ok so to answer your second question so there are no specific instructions as to how to use which software to use for OER all the videos or websites any that is so as let me repeat the definition an OER is digitally available freely and openly available resource that can be used and reused by everyone so if this if whatever resource that you create satisfies these three criteria that itself is sufficient regarding your question on RCA02 I did not understand what exactly you were asking in that actually I am telling that when preparing the slides suppose in a group there are three members so RCA02 RCA02 is not a group assignment RCA02 RCA02 is not a group assignment RCA02 is an individual assignment only OER is the group assignment in the discussion from some members are already posted I am just following the discussion program OER related URL is also there they are maintaining some Google slides and they are maintaining the same topics so I have doubt that whether they have to follow the same we have to follow the same topic or not so for a group they may be different correct correct so RCA02 is an individual assignment and OER is a OER is actually RCA03 so OER is a different assignment OER is a group assignment and it may so happen that somebody uses their existing resources that they created in RCA01 or 02 or even in the previous FDP some of the website that they created they may use for the current OER assignment so that is perfectly valid but OER is a group process so two or three people will come together the OER process documentation and product both are equally important ok thank you sir thank you Sri Shanmuga College of Engineering good evening sir good evening I am from Sri Shanmuga College of Engineering and Technology I want to know questions sir first one is FC Activity we uploaded in our college all participants uploaded in that we are given that evaluation slide there is 34 what is the meaning of that there is no temperate is given no can you explain what is the meaning meaning of that what is your second question second is to do OER activity what are the three video software three video software like screenocastomatic like that what is the other software so the other software so if you actually look at learning extension resource so there are multiple OER so multiple video resources that are available so you just look at screen so look at the LXT resources that we have provided in fdp101 where we discuss screencast so we have given a list of screencast softwares that you can actually use and regarding the flip classroom activity constructor I think it is a typo I mean we had removed certain slides so we had removed certain slides but I think the table of contents I would refer now you tell me yeah so on the top of my mind what comes is cam studio screencastomatic, vlc all these comes to my mind but you can go in and check the other resources as well and regarding your first question that evaluation thing yeah regarding that it is actually a typo unfortunately there is an error we forgot to remove the table of contents slide so please do not worry about that evaluation slide because it is actually borrowed from an earlier flip classroom activity constructor that we had created for the previous pedagogy workshop so we forgot to remove the table of contents slide so do not worry about it let me now go to rc1290 cdak noida we have actually couple of questions hmm both the questions one question is on OER the other one is on the RCA that we have done the question on OER is that let us say if we create some lecture content with quizzes and assignment hmm will it be classified as OER and is it good enough yes as long as you put it in creative comments that is good enough so once again repeating the definition of OER is any teaching learning resource that is available in free and open so no issues while creating OERs let us see if I take something that is already created and I use that in creating my own OERs and I quote it that should be sufficient enough right yes so there should be some meaningful contribution from your end also so how to use this or let us say you add your own little interpretations of it then it becomes a good OER better OER yes yes yes I understood that the difference is that I should make something existing to be good or better yes so your team should it is not you your team should actually make it yes the question is again on the RCA activity the question is that a lot of people they are I mean at least for a couple of us there are no feedback but the numbers were cut okay so in cases where there are no feedback so what we will request you is provide your provide your RCA to your mentor who will provide it and provide it to IIT Bombay his review will be provided to IIT Bombay which will be reflected in your grids okay the other question is that for me this is what happened one guy has given a no ER sorry RCA but there is nothing in the site so you should if it if it is blank then you should give a missing or zero points for that but the problem is that if some if if a file is later uploaded then the blame will be coming on me no no so over there what you can do is when you are evaluating you can take a screenshot of the website and keep it with you okay and you should provide yes so you should provide a detailed feedback that on checking on so and so date I found your website to be empty okay okay the detail one more question regarding regarding this we have reviewed a lot has been discussed my concern is that in RCA1 and RCA2 what I had seen with my these submissions is that only a single peer review has been done it will be better if there will be a combination of two or three kind of weighted average will be taken of two or three yeah so let me clarify it what you are seeing is so everybody has to do more than one reviews and there is it's a median of the reviews that will be seen as your score so it may so happen that your review might be given by multiple people but the median score is actually shown as your grade is that only one comment if it is a so over there what happens is the first reviewers comment so what we have given is first reviewers comment will be shown and the median of the grade is actually shown in the final grades in earlier FDP in earlier these kind of activities I was able to see three comments from the three different reviewers the my concern is that if there is a single reviewer it might be a bias when and more over I won't get the exact the exact outcome valid valid valid point so for OERs definitely we are having more than one review so there will be minimum three reviews that is required for OERs for each and every OER OER there will be three reviews but in my case I don't know but I am able to see only one commented I think it is a kind of one review only no so for RCA2 the reviews are still open right reviews are open till tomorrow right RCA so you may get more reviews in the coming days but RCA1 is already completed and my mentor has already forwarded this concern to IIT Bombay yeah so we had actually received two or three queries like that but RCA1 see at the start we have actually put in one review but over the course of time we have increased the number of peer reviews so you will be getting more than one reviews for the upcoming that is what we are expecting because everyone is supposed to do more than one peer review so it is going to affect in it is going to be affect or having a change in the marks or grading yes so the final grade once the due date is over will be dependent on the median mark of all the reviews so that is how the system is actually created good evening sir I want to know in the OER title can you suggest something I am from mathematics my topic is regression analysis is this necessary to take regression analysis with the flipped class or we have to mention something or we just call it regression analysis that is good enough so title is up to you such that it communicates to the reviewer what you are actually doing that is sufficient so even if you put regression analysis or other things that is good enough so we are not going to evaluate the title the title is just an indication towards what the OER is about one more thing sir when everything is under CC license so and we can use or reuse it so when we call it what is the difference between plagiarism and this use and reuse so I am not understanding so everybody can use CC license files or videos so how we can call that it is a plagiarism so if the file is used or the resource is used without attribution then it is a plagiarism without calling so every OER previous OER is under CC license so if I am using that one so why we are calling that as comes under plagiarism I want to just want to differentiate between these two so plagiarism is happening when you are using a resource and you are not attributing the source of it so if you are taking the full resource but you are saying that this resource has been taken from so and so place and is under creative commons license it is not plagiarized you are allowed to as per the license you are allowed to use it and reuse it but when you do not provide this where you have this is used by somebody this is from somebody else's resource then you are doing plagiarism resource we can't use but the no the source you are not citing the source you are not citing I am saying that so for example I am taking somebody else's music and I am saying that this is my own music that is plagiarism but I am saying that I am taking this person's music so let's say Himesh Reshmaya decides that I am going to use A.R. Raman's music which is in creative commons and says that this is A.R. Raman's music under creative commons license then it is valid but Himesh Reshmaya taking A.R. Raman's creative commons license music and saying that this is Himesh Reshmaya's music is wrong. Sir can you tell me how we can take feedback from students which platform we can use to take feedback from them any platform Moodle, Google Forms or even pen and paper even that is good enough hello hello Moodle, Google Forms there are multiple platforms that you can use which is easy to use user friendly one user friendly sometimes I feel this is not user friendly this is not easy student don't want to give their feedback they feel very bored about it we have to use this technology so we don't want so they just avoid it so the answer to it is basically what your user likes so if I say that for me Moodle is user friendly but maybe for your students Moodle is not user friendly so it actually depends on the operating context so giving top level recommendations any one of this is possible but see what is accepted by your students there are no right answers to this question there is one question in knowledge quiz that is based on create level and you are explaining this in week 4 so the question is in week 2 this is of week 2 so that creates a problem and once again we marked it wrong as I have explained to the person who had initially raised this question do not worry about the marks we will find some mechanisms through which people are not affected by this or errors so we will definitely find some mechanism through which these kind of errors are limited sir in some questions we find in peer instructions peer instruction video and related question there so that was multiple choice question but nothing is mentioned along with that whether it is multiple choice or it is a single choice and indication in the question itself so in the practice question as well as in the quiz question we again the answer is that so over the past so I completely agree that instructions were not provided we will definitely find some alternate mechanism but having said that whenever a checkbox is provided we expected people to be here with the pattern that is why there were no separate instructions per se because in fdp 101 you were doing lot of these multiple choice questions in lbd also you were doing lot of these multiple choice questions so but yeah having said that we will definitely factor this query because this is a valid query we will we will make sure that you are not penalized because of that I am not bothering about penalize I am just for sake of knowledge is there any specific reason to do this activity in this way no so we were expecting that people will get used to the idea of having seeing checkbox and understanding that multiple there is a multiple choice question it is just because of that okay fine sir yeah sir in the discussion forum I post many in the fdp 101 next and also here but my most of the post hide there so is there any once again I want to ask is there any reason why they are hiding I am never able to see my post once again so essentially you have around 5000 to 7000 participants in the course and each of them are posting multiple discussion threads that is why your posts are getting hidden or it is going down so it may that is the only reason if you want to search for your post you can give your user name and you can see all the posts that you have created but I have done the same thing but I never get the things listed it always shows error or something else sorry we had trouble loading more threads please try again it always shows like this have you sent an email to core support for this I have sent many mails to team mails regarding this but no reply from your end let me check with the core support team and see the problem is there are multiple courses at the same time so even core support team requires some time to respond to many of the queries but what I will do is I will ask the core support team to provide some guidelines so that I can put it in the courseware where these kind of errors can be limited or some action can be taken on these kind of errors ok ok thank you sir thank you so nice of you let me now go to Techno India Salt Lake sir I have a query regarding the wiki spaces ok what exactly are we supposed to do as the assignment so the assignment instructions will be given tomorrow for today all you have to do today and tomorrow you have to just do the wiki spaces that is it so that you will be able to do the assignment properly ok let me now go to PSG college 1136 sir this is selectivity from PSG yes ma'am yes ma'am sir today's assignment RCA03 that assignment instead of pasting the URL links that is the I have pasted wrongly the my wordpress link sir is there any possibility to enable it and to correct it sir unfortunately it would not be possible I mean just hope that you have uploaded your fc activity in your wordpress page under fdp 201x and just hope that your reviewer actually goes and sees the fdp 201x because in the instruction if the exact link is not provided even the reviewer is not at a fault for wrongly evaluating isn't it yes sir if they open my link they could see only my wordpress page only if they know my password they can get into my wordpress this is very unfortunate but there are no direct answers so we cannot reenable the link what is the solution sir it is by mistake only I have done but I completed my task see but so it's like for your so it's like in examination you have written all the answers but you gave the wrong answer paper what will the evaluator do there actually we are from humanities and we are not technologically strong that is the reason no but humanities the instruction is I think it is English I pasted that URL instead of that flipflip it's highly unfortunate yeah so it's highly unfortunate but what you can actually ask is please contact your mentor and see whether the mentor can review it once I spoke with my mentor too sir and she asked me to send mail to e-outreach to sir yes so the general instruction to the mentors will now come wherein they are asked to consult it all such queries and review it on our behalf okay finally do pay versus I will hello yeah one more question yeah good evening sir good evening this is Raja Moghana workshop coordinator tell me ma'am please contact training for workshop coordinator first sir whenever you give assignments to participants then immediately people are calling me ma'am how to form OER groups how to do all the assignments please help us without knowing the content how can I help you sir yeah so that is why the participants so when these kind of queries come the first thing that you can do is you can ask the participants to contact their mentor who is more aware of the OER process team formation etc the mentor is not responding just sit with them and see the content that is there so all the instructions are plain English and everybody can actually read and understand it so if you can spend time with the person ask them to come over to your place show the course where where the instructions are provided and if you understand the instructions just help them else what you can also do is ask them to send an email to e-outreach so the first contact point for any participant is their mentor if the mentor is not responding then ask them to contact the e-outreach team we will do the needful from our end okay excuse me sir but our mentor is asking us to contact e-outreach sir when I called her immediately she is asking me to send mail to e-outreach no so regarding reviews etc given clear instructions to the mentors that they can take the review and consolidate it but what we will do is we will send out a separate email now to all the mentors that they have to accept these queries and handle it okay thank you
