For the past year, I have been enrolled in the MSc in Digital Education at the University of Edinburgh, and this past semester I participated in the Digital Futures for Learning module led by Jen Ross. As part of the course work, participants create an OER related to a furturing-theme (sustainability, interfaces, visibility) and a topic of their choosing.
Given that I am currently immersed in the research and creation of a course for learning/instructional designers, I created an OER aimed at that audience that practically introduces degrowth in postdigital learning design through reflection on current practice. I specifically enrolled in the Digital Futures course because of the OER assignment as I knew that it would be relevant to my work, and I hope to use and reuse elements of this resource over time.
The three-hour, interactive course is available to access online. You can download the SCORM and text files for local use on the National Teaching Repository. If you would like a copy shared with you via Articulate Rise please feel free reach out to me.
