OER 2022: Not me, not mine, not myself

Was wondering about that with #OER22. It didn't go very far, then, for a variety of reasons. That hashtag is still in my filter. In fact, it's the very first one before #OpenEducation. Sounds like there are enough people following #OER developments here that it could work.

@mackiwg @oeglobal Care to elaborate on what's possible now which wasn't possible before 4.0? I did set up a hashtag filter, just before #oer22. Though maybe there's a better way to do it?
(Can't recall how rules worked, when I became active in the fediverse, a few years ago.)

Just trying to untangle the tangle of thoughts that have landed on me from #OER22. Great conference as always.

Reflections of Open Learning Design: Principles & Practices

"If we are looking for things that are easy, the answers will be prescriptive. The answers will be big and they will be corporatized. If we want things to be small and holistic they will be hard. They will be work. They will make us take things that are imperfect and we need to be ok with that." @Telias on scalability of technology for her excellent #oer22 talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USSA6dDoWso

Quote from @Telias at #OER22 "Most technology companies, EdTech, textbooks publishers, governments, and institutions replicate prescriptive approaches to their technological practices; many teachers, librarians, and faculty feel caught within such bureaucratic patterns."
