Do Students Care?
Students generally
- UBC OCW Facebook Group. 46 students in group. Started by a second year student. Didn't go anywhere.
UBC-V Student leaders
- Student senators.
- Edgcumbe election issue.
- On Board in Spirit.
- Tangibles, though?
- UBC-V Students' union sympathetic, not a priority (but could be)
- Student media interested. Ubyssey cc-licensing on table.
National movement
- Textbooks now on national agenda of students.
- Promises from Conservatives.
- Entry into copyright.
- Close to OE. Shift focus?
- Also on mind: OCW.
- National lobby casual exploration.
- Not on mind: "Open Education". What is "Open Education"?
UBC-V Climate
Hurdles
- Where is the Provost?
- Where is the Library, publicly?
- Where is this movement in formal documentation?
My Wish
- Step 1: Framing. A UBC home, community and definition.
- Step 2: Enacting. Policy and clear resourcing.
