Adbusting Big Tobacco: Culture-Jamming, Plain Packaging, and Social Marketing

This paper explores the debate over intellectual property and tobacco control - focusing on various efforts to neutralise the powerful advertising campaigns of Big Tobacco. There has been a tradition of culture-jamming against Big Tobacco's advertising - with Australia's B.U.G.A.U.P. graffitists, Canada's Adbusters, and John Oliver's segment on 'Tobacco', featuring Jeff the Diseased Lung. Under the leadership of Health Minister and Attorney-General Nicola Roxon, Australia passed legislation, mandating standardized packaging of tobacco products. The introduction of plain packaging of tobacco products has been defended by Australia in the High Court of Australia, an ISDS hearing, and the World Trade Organization (WTO). The measure has since been adopted by a dozen other nations in an effort to combat the global tobacco epidemic. A number of pioneering public health-minded countries - such as New Zealand and Finland - have gone further and have been formulating policies and strategies to achieve a tobacco endgame. In this context, this paper contends that the Creative Commons movement could play a socially useful and productive role in social marketing and behavioral economics - through promoting public health policies and initiatives, and counteracting tobacco advertising and social media.In other words, the Creative Commons could help foster a Public Health Commons.

The Alternative School: Integrating Open Schooling and Homeschooling

Open Schooling and Homeschooling are established systems that were massively adopted at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. In what this research calls the alternative school, two things have increased the potential effectiveness and quality when adopted and these are digital technology and open education resources (OER). However, widespread adoption does not mean effective and qualitative use or delivery. A roadmap for adoption of the alternative school for quality is provided.

Creating the Resources & Support Services to Assist National Governments Implementing the UNESCO Recommendation on OER

Open sharing advances universal access to knowledge in furtherance of fundamental human rights. When governments implement the UNESCO Recommendation on OER, open education increasingly becomes the default, and the world moves closer to reaching fundamental human rights: everyone has the right to an education.

Governments will require support to implement the many actions listed in the UNESCO Recommendation on OER. This interactive activity will brainstorm what resources and direct services governments may need to successfully implement the detailed actions in the Recommendation.

The paradigm shift in special education from ‘segregated instruction’ to ‘mainstreaming’, integrated education’ and ‘inclusive education’ has been part of the discourse of professionals in education worldwide in the last three decades. Even though successive government schemes and programs have brought large numbers of children with disabilities into schools, there remain significant gaps. This course aims to develop capacities among the educators including heads, principals, in-service and pre-service teachers to teach children in regular classrooms developed under OER4BW, UNESCO Slovenia.

How can Open Educational Video Resources be made more Accessible for Remixing and Translation Beyond Posting on YouTube?

YouTube (YT) is one of the most popular platforms for easily sharing open educational video content, but some system features inherently limit the re-usability of CC-licensed materials. We describe a workflow to facilitate compliance with CC licenses for sharing educational videos on YT. We developed this workflow for content of the Open Life Science (OLS) mentorship program. To improve the reusability of OLS videos, we shared videos and captions in English and Arabic on Zenodo and GitHub. This facilitates collaborative translations of the captions and retains download-rights of the videos.

We are a community of citizen/professional scientists and open-source developers building a citizen science platform to investigate sensory processing and autism. The dataset will be used to make environments such as hospitals and schools more enabling for autistic people. We follow best practices for open-source research adapted by and for neurodiverse people. The platform is openly licensed and can be modified for other research, and we are developing a participatory framework which can guide other research. In this session we present the platform/research findings and invite collaborators.

The Role of Digital Repositories in Shaping Open Education Strategies in Latin America

Embracing OER as one of the most relevant assets within the Open Education movement has proved to be growing its adherence in LatAm. Although digital repositories are the channel with the largest capillarization potential for scholars and lifelong learners in the region, LatAm countries still face a great challenge when it comes to equally guaranteeing access to education. This presentation aims to showcase a case study that analyses the OA policies from 4 countries from the region and propose a sustainability model for OER digital repositories, including their copyright legislation factors.

Open as a High Impact Practice: Centering Open Pedagogy and Public Scholarship

We partnered with a faculty member to redesign a first-year undergraduate course to develop the Talking Stories (https://www.talkingstories.uoregon.edu) OER, centering students as creators, not just consumers, of information. This session will share replicable practices that will work regardless of technical platform or subject matter. The high impact practice of collaborative digital projects is enhanced by incorporating open practices that helped create an OER and taught students about Creative Commons licenses, copyright, and fair use and ideas for asynchronous instruction will be shared.

Geogebra + Illustrative Mathematics = Great Teaching and Learning

This session will show participants how to access and use an OER digital LMS course that increases the ability of students to collaborate and communicate with each other and their teacher.

The course is a mash up of highly rated OER content designed for in person instruction (Illustrative Mathematics) with a widely used OER digital app (GeoGebra.) The combination is then used in an open source LMS. (The course can also be used in proprietary LMSs.) It’s an example of Creative, Innovative, and Effective use of Open Educational Resources and Practices with Global usefulness.
