Next Steps

Consider the why, what, who, when & how of GoOpenNC, and determine what next step(s) you plan to take.

District:  Hyde County School District

Team: S.L. King-Bowen

Critical Path

Why?

Consider: Why is OER a value-add to our district and teams?  

Why will framing be an important component of successful engagement?

Discussion/Notes:

-Given the new curriculum adoption of READY for Math and ELA 2019-2020 school year. Then OER would be best used as support for additional interventions and enrichment lessons. 

Action Items:

-Create a group for teachers grades K-2, 3-5, and 6-8 for interventions and enrichments within NC OER.  

What

Consider: Do I need to learn more about OER, OEP, and/or open licensing?

Would be helpful to me if I can spend more time learning about the features and functionality of the microsite?

In my district/school, we have created openly-licensed content that could be added to the microsite.  Do I need to consider the process for making this happen?

Discussion/Notes:

-I need to learn much more about the functionality of the microsite.

-I need to share this incredible resource with the director.

Action Items:

Who?

Consider: I know there are OER champions already in my district/school. How can I best connect with them to discuss GoOpenNC?

How can I best determine other instructional leaders in my district/school who can join me as thought partners as we investigate OER/OEP?

Discussion/Notes:

-I believe I can obtain buy in from Social Studies, Science or CTE 

-I believe I can persuade the HS science teacher who uses Ck-12 consistently in her classroom to present to others.

Action Items:

When?

Consider: When are there opportunities for teachers and instructional leaders to engage in professional learning related to OER?

When the district/school reviews and selects instructional materials, can we could consider OER and how those materials can be utilized?

Discussion/Notes:

-Beginning of the year, I must have a created blended exploration experience for them like an escape the room using these resources to engage them. 

Action Items:

How?

Consider: I need to spend time considering how teachers in my district/school are currently selecting instructional materials, and what supports they need to effectively select high quality, standards aligned resources.

How can we best support teachers as they find, vet, use, and create OER.

Are there opportunities for teachers to curate and align OER to standards?
