 And over to you, Jörg. Thank you very much, Martin. Jörg Bareig is here from Karlstad University in Sweden. And I have with me my colleague Lars Jolien. Lars, do you want to say hi? Hi, everyone. I'm Lars. I don't know if you've seen me or I think I'm sharing my screen. Yeah? Yeah. We're an educational developer at Link Shopping University in Sweden. And we will be presenting a course to you going from one course to another on a, I almost want to say, global scale now open network learning. You see the link there in the middle. Lars, maybe you can put in the link in the chat room as well. We call it a course, a community, an approach, a collaborative effort with a core team of organizers from Sweden. And you see our colleagues here. And most of you will know him. Alistair Krillman, who's I think here as well or was here at least in Maria Kvarnström and Lotta Åbjönsson from different universities in Sweden. But it's actually a global effort. I'll get back to you. There's more partner universities involved in this course around the world and it's an open course. And do I switch to the next slide here or wait? Yeah, now I'm getting the hang of it. My microphone was in front of it. So it is an open online course about open online teaching and learning. It's targeted to your regular teacher, a colleague at your university but also pedagogical developers and librarians often taking part in the course. Everyone really who wants to understand and experience open network learning. And when we talk about open network learning, we focus very much on problem-based learning and the course is really designed around problem-based learning. And that's the main focus of the course, I'd say. And not as so much, mainly on an openness maybe. All the materials open there, you can participate in the course. Also, I'll get back to you. There's three different ways in participating. We'll tell you all about it in a second. But it's really a problem-based learning course online. And I just wanted to check with you guys. Has anyone done problem-based learning in online session? In the audience, if you want to just let us know in the chat and how much you are aware of problem-based learning as well, how much we should go back into it and explain problem-based learning. If you could let us know in the chat and we can adapt the presentation a little bit just to get a feel. Yes, you can read all about it on the definition of problem-based learning. How we can see that and interpret it on the course on page. Maybe one of my colleagues can send and copy and paste in our definition. I don't have it at hand right now. Maybe Lars has it in the definition of this. Lars, you're maybe a PBL expert really. Well, PBL, the core aspects of problem-based learning is really inquiring to real-world problems or challenges and that you also have a lot of own responsibility and self-directed learning within the framework of also working with collaborative learning. So, I mean, working with small groups, small teams inquiring to real-world problems, I would say, would be some kind of core of what we see problem-based learning is. For us, it's not a method. It's rather a kind of an educational approach and it needs to be designed into whole education. Yeah, excellent. We maybe have a chance to get more back to it at the end of the presentation. Just a quick history. This course is rather old, I'd say, and has its history in a course called Flexible Distance Online Learning, which has a connection also to the UK where Chrissy and Lars started this course back in 2013 when the MOOC hype turned off a little bit. This is where I got the first time in touch with the course and was a lurker within the course for many years until I joined it again, a good one and a half years ago to be part of the organizing commentary. And yeah, since 2014, we run the course now under the name Open Network Learning. And it's, as I said, focused on teachers and educational developers and without diving too much into the different topics. You can see them here and if you just quickly read through the headings, I think most of you will get an understanding of what we mean with these topics. The course is actually running right now, so we are in the top right corner, open learning, sharing and openness, what a great coincidence. We had a tweet chat today simultaneously with the tweet chat in the conference. We tried to get started in the course with setting, getting everyone set up technically. We run the course on the WordPress homepage, have a little bit community space built there, which I'll show you in a second and ask everyone to set up a blog. And for those of the participants who want it, can connect their blog to the course home page, which we aggregate into the Central Learning Hub. All right. So how does this course work? There's three ways, really, of participating. So the first group of participants, they are teachers or employed in faculty and staff at the partner universities. We have 12 to 15 partner universities for each term. The course runs twice a year. So each partner university sends a number of participants. Each university has six bots, to be honest, and to be specific. And we call them the institutional participants. They are faculty at the partner universities. For each PBL group, which we have eight spots on, we also have then two spots open for open learners. And they can be like you and me, how I started in 2003 in the course, have no affiliation to the partner universities. We have the course for people who are really eager to join PBL session. And then the third way of participating is as an independent learner. If you don't want to commit to a PBL group, which requires two live sessions each week, and you have to coordinate yourself with other participants in your PBL group and put six to eight hours on, if you just want to participate independently, we advise you to set up your blog and connect it and connect through the lives that we organize, like webinars or tweet shirts during the blogs. So that's the three ways of participating. So you have the link there underneath it. Then you register either as an institutional learner at your partner university, at your own institution, or through a registration form we have here, or if you're an independent learner, you don't need to register at all. And then you get ready and then we hit it off. And to show you why we talk about the community, this is our international community of partner universities. So a lot of Swedish universities who have this course as their competence development course for teacher training, we also have two universities from Finland part of it. We have two universities or colleges from South Africa. We have a university from Germany and I think we have participants here as well in the audience. And yes, Victoria, hi, good to have you with us here as well. And then we have the National University of Singapore as well as one of the partner universities. And then we have on the right-hand side, you see a lot of open learners which come from all different parts around the world. And we mix those participants in PBL groups of eight people and each PBL group has two facilitators, a facilitator and a co-facilitator who guide the team process and make sure, especially in the beginning, that the PBL group gets on with their work. And so an overview of the 12 weeks is like this. We have in the beginning, they're getting started the week. We have the connecting week and then we have the topics. And now next week, we have a reflection week where everyone takes a break and maybe reflects on the learning as we take part. And in each topic, the structure looks like this. And we introduce the scenario that's the central part of the problem-based learning. The team gathers around the scenario and which they together make sense of and focus on a problem they want to focus on. So it's participant-driven, really, what they want to focus on. The PBL group would meet twice a week then and to share their own investigations and to collaborate and present then at the end of the week their PBL group would be with the blue arrow which they share back to the other PBL groups in the larger community. So for the larger community from all participants and there are around 100 participants in the course so it's not a massive open online course. But we have a community space where people can share some other resources as questions like a discussion forum. I'll show you in a second. Then each PBL group has their own PBL group space for discussion and a place to share their collaborative documents and find the collaborative documents we provide with them. And then they have their individual studies as part of the PBL group work but also as part of blogging and commenting on other blog posts and connecting with others. And we ask them to comment on each other's blogs obviously to get this connected learning going on outside PBL groups as well. So if you go to all blog posts in the menu then you see all the blog posts if you're keen to take care of and take part of the reflections going on with right now 65 blogs connected. We don't require this. This is completely up to the participants to connect their blog and a lot of them use this, make use of this option. And then we have like for the last three iterations where we started with the aggregation we have like more than 1000 syndicated posts which is pretty cool. And that's really the possibility for independent learners to connect to the others here. And so this is the community space from last year here. It's blocked by a lot of you will know him, Tom Woodward. So he designed this space. It's as I said a WordPress page. Some of you might recognize it. It looks familiar if you use Google Plus and Tom built redesigned it template from the Google Plus design which is kind of neat and it's really available out there as well on Tom's or VCU's GitHub page. For easy sharing here just like finishing up the presentation shortly just going to show you a quick number so we've been running this course since 2014 and still going strong. We kind of have a sustainable model. We're getting more and more participants getting certified or if you fulfill the requirements and with the blogging and commenting and actively participate in the PBI certificates so you see the numbers. Again, not massive but a steady growth of O and Ls which a lot of them come back and be part and join as facilitators or co-facilitators afterwards. Just some, yeah, not a scientific course evaluation but from the final value now from one of the last iterations here some words where participants describe the course in one word. It's a lot of fun and collaboration and inspiring. You see also words as one tiny word was frustrating here somewhere in the left I think as well. It can be confusing and frustrating. Maybe not as frustrating and confusing how a scene can be so this is where you think the part comes in where the PBL groups also work in a closed environment. It's not open just because we want to introduce slowly participants to the concept and idea of openness which is very new to a lot of the participants but it's a good fun and it's inspiring and collaborative process. The next iteration if you want to start from scratch beginning with it then we gladly welcome you in the 14th of September where we kick off the next iteration. It's 12 weeks until the 6th of December. So yeah, hope to see you there on our current hashtag O1L201. All right, I think, did I miss anything? There seems to be some minutes left. Any questions or ideas about this? I think you've done a wonderful job keeping your time and I think as well you've an excellent job tag teaming the questions in the community but in the chat sorry but if anyone would like to ask a question please feel free. Eva raise your hand or put it in the chat and we can pick it up. Yeah, otherwise things... And I think there's an open invitation we were striving to be an international collaboration with this course so anyone interested just contact any of us. Yeah, and I forget to mention we had like that Dave White also joined for one of the topics so if you're ever keen to want to join in and present in one of the webinars during the topic also feel free to contact us and we got a question. I'm still wondering why. I think Gavin's question is about if there are any costs I mean the whole idea with the course is collaboration between institutions and that's why we moved outside universities so it's collaborative project where everyone contributes with resources and facilitation in the course. Each institution uses this common course as a course in their own institution and they make certificate to NSS their own participant in the course. So what we're really offering here is an arena I think for institutions to collaborate and there shouldn't be any costs involved in that unless more than what each institution contributes with this collaborative project. Yeah, and each university contributes with the time of the facilitators and the rest is a community project and it's like, yeah, like for each university. One thing that's fantastic, you mentioned co-facilitators and previous participants and we have a lot of previous participants that still want to continue contributing in the course and being part of the community. So I mean that's open network learning it's about community building and networking and once you join that and feel the community you don't want to quit it so you want to stay and so that's why the community is growing I think. Yeah, so please let us know if you're interested. Yeah, thanks Gavi for the feedback. Let's talk more. I think you knew Alistair as well I guess so we'd be happy to connect. Excellent, thanks a lot for having us. Thanks very much. Thank you and a lot for our audience to take away. So if we could just thank all our presenters for their sessions today in this slot. We're actually, if you want to hang around we're actually doing the close of OER20 in this.
