What’s Wrong with Excess Copyright?
• Too long• Unclear of provisions for educational and
research use• Every creative idea is an assemblage of the
ideas and technologies of others
![Page 15: Open Educational Practice for Colloque International Montreal 2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.pub/reader036/viewer/2022062512/5549b1b1b4c90564768b478a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• “Indeed, only 1,000 new works appeared annually in England at that time -- 10 times fewer than in Germany -- and this was not without consequences. Eckhard Höffner believes it was the chronically weak book market that caused England, the colonial power, to fritter away its head start within the span of a century, while the underdeveloped, agrarian state of Germany caught up rapidly, becoming an equally developed industrial nation by 1900.”
• UK Copyright Law 1710• Prussia - 1837

Components of Open Pedagogy
• Persistence• Student ownership and control• Open to participation globally• Creation and curation of open artifacts• Affordable – the educational “digital dividend”
![Page 17: Open Educational Practice for Colloque International Montreal 2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.pub/reader036/viewer/2022062512/5549b1b1b4c90564768b478a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Are LMS BAD?
• Bricolage – the LMS as Enterprise Systems doesn’t allow or cater for bricolage.
• Affordances – resulting in an inability to leverage the affordances of technology to improve learning and teaching.
• Distribution – the idea that knowledge about how to improve L&T is distributed and the implications that has for the institutional practice of e-learning."

Walled Gardens (with windows)
• Connectivist learning thrives in safe learning spaces with windows allowing randomness, external participation and public presentation

OER Scan of Canada
… the protection of the French culture in Quebec is a paramount concern and as such they are much more concerned about protecting their publishers and authors than they are about supporting open content for their educational institutions

OER Barriers to Adoption
• Few instructor incentives• Publisher push back• Quality concerns• Licensing, copyright issues• “not invented here” syndrome• Lack of open culture and practice• Insufficient content

We can’t afford textbooks
• Textbook prices skyrocketed 82% between 2002 and 2012,
• average student budget for books and supplies has grown to $1,207 annually (USA figures).
• Current Bill to support open texts across US, goal of reducing costs by 80%
• Washington State program since 2010 has saved students $5.4 million versus State cost of less than $1.8 Million
• All students get open text books!http://www.sparc.arl.org/advocacy/national/act

Journal Publishing
• Until recently, largely controlled by for profit companies
• “profits of the journal publishing sectors of the major publishers’ business are their most profitable divisions.
• For example, the worlds largest publisher Elsevier made “£724m ($1.1 billion) on revenues of £2 billion—an operating-profit margin of 36%.” http://www.economist.com/node/18744177.

“major periodical subscriptions, especially to electronic journals published by historically key providers, cannot be sustained: continuing these subscriptions on their current footing is financially untenable. Doing so would seriously erode collection efforts in many other areas, already compromised”.

Open Access Emerges
• Journal TOCs lists over 23,170 journals - 9,986 OA titles make up 43% of the overall content. (DOAJ - 2013)
• Publishing and Review Systems: Open Journal System – Canadian, (SFU)
– Complete submission, review, copyedit, analytics and publication system
– Over 7,000 journals using OJS (as of 2012)

Predatory Open Access Journals
“those that unprofessionally exploit the author-pays model of open-access publishing (Gold OA) for their own profit. Typically, these publishers:
• spam professional email lists, • broadly soliciting article submissions for the clear purpose of
gaining income.• operate essentially as vanity presses,• typically have a low article acceptance threshold, • Have a false-front or non-existent peer review process.

Publishers Reactions
• Ignore OA• Fight It
– Lobby for anti-OA legislation– Discredit OA quality– Discriminate against OER in citation indexes
• Morph It– Free your article in a closed journal for a fee (hybrid
model)– Allow individual deposit in data bases (after embargo)

Does Open Access Increase or Decrease Citation rates?
• Mixed results• “Articles placed in the open access condition
(n=712) received significantly more downloads and reached a broader audience within the first year, yet were cited no more frequently, nor earlier, than subscription-access control articles (n=2533) within 3 yr.” (Davis, 2011, P. 2129).

Challenges of Open Adoption1. Institutional impotence –“resistance
manifested itself as both an active form of change blocking and in more passive forms of intransigence that become a form of institutional impotence both institutionally and at an academic and student level.”
2 Governance -“Governance itself became an activity rather than a means to implement activity”

Are you Ready to Take the Pledge??
• I pledge that:– “ I will no longer submit my
work to closed publications, nor participate in review or editorial functions for closed publications.”
![Page 58: Open Educational Practice for Colloque International Montreal 2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.pub/reader036/viewer/2022062512/5549b1b1b4c90564768b478a/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
• I pledge to devote most of my reviewing and editing efforts to manuscripts destined for open access. For other manuscripts, I will restrict myself to one review by me for each review obtained for me by an outlet that is not open access.
