SUMMARY:Resourcefully Assessing: Critical Approaches to Assessment Series | Quality Indicators for Open Educational Resources (OER)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our first event in the Resourcefully Assessing — Critical Approaches to Assessment series\, hosted by the Outreach & Assessment working group. This series will explore a variety of assessment strategies for different resource and collection types. In this coffee chat\, Joanna Schimizzi will discuss quality indicators for Open Educational Resources (OER). We’ll share example resources\, rubrics\, and templates that support you in finding and evaluating OER\, with a focus on primary source sets. Part of the conversation will of course focus on student needs and on the opportunity to customize and localize resources to build robust sets of work. \nJoanna Schimizzi is a Biology teacher in North Carolina and a Professional Learning Specialist with ISKME. While getting her Master’s in Education from Northeastern University\, she became extremely interested in classroom culture and student identity. This led her to work with ISKME and OER Commons to support educators in finding Open Educational Resources (OER) so that resources can be modified and remixed to include a wider variety of perspectives and experiences. Joanna is mom to two boys and lives with her husband in a little town outside of Charlotte\, NC. \nPlease register here.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Standardized Rights Statements
DESCRIPTION:Curious about standardized rights statements? Standardized rights statements help increase access and reuse of your items. By providing rights in the form of a machine-readable URI\, users can facet on rights in the DPLA interface and open access items can be shared by DPLA to Wikimedia Commons. Want to learn how to apply them to your digital collection? \nJoin the DPLA Rights Statements Working Group for an introduction to standardized rights statements. RightsStatements.org statements are a simple\, standardized system of labels that more clearly communicate the copyright and re-use status of digital objects to the public. Adding these labels to your digital collections will improve usability and access for users. Presenters for this webinar will include members of the DPLA Rights Statements Working Group\, many of whom are currently implementing rights statements for the collections they manage. They will share their expertise and experiences\, as well as a wide range of resources for implementation. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Practical Approaches to Reparative Description Workshop Series: Local Contexts: Tools for Supporting Indigenous Rights and Interests in Collections

SUMMARY:Teaching and Learning with DPLA Resources
DESCRIPTION:Are you “hungry” for resources that will inspire rich discussion in your classes? Join the DPLA Outreach & Assessment Working Group and Joanna to explore the Primary Source Sets from DPLA\, including this example – “Feeding the Hungry with Food Stamp Programs.” In this session\, we’ll chat about the structure of the existing Primary Source Sets and use framing questions to see what might be missing. Joanna will provide an OER Commons template for you to curate additional resources and provide feedback on what else could enrich these sets. Bring your appetite because we’ll be providing a lot to consume. \nJoanna Schimizzi is a Biology teacher in North Carolina and a Professional Learning Specialist with ISKME. While getting her Master’s in Education from Northeastern University\, she became extremely interested in classroom culture and student identity. This led her to work with ISKME and OER Commons to support educators in finding Open Educational Resources (OER) so that resources can be modified and remixed to include a wider variety of perspectives and experiences. Joanna is mom to two boys and lives with her husband in a little town outside of Charlotte\, NC. \nPlease register here.

SUMMARY:DPLA Coffee Chat: A Wikimedia Case Study: Columbus Metropolitan Library and Ohio Digital Network
DESCRIPTION:In this DPLA Network Coffee Chat\, representatives from the Columbus Metropolitan Library (CML)\, Ohio Digital Network\, and DPLA will discuss their recent collaboration to share over 350\,000 images from CML’s digital collections to Wikimedia Commons and Wikipedia in July. In the first two months\, these images received over 3 million page views in Wikimedia’s sites. The project relied upon Ohio Digital Network aggregation and Digital Public Library of America’s pipeline to Wikimedia Commons and was initiated after an inquiry from an interested member of the library’s community. This is a new\, developing project\, and we’ll discuss how it has unfolded from inception to final execution\, to give others a sense of what participation in DPLA’s Wikimedia project is like. \nIn the second hour\, attendees are invited to stay for an optional guided group editing session with Dominic Byrd-McDevitt\, DPLA’s Data & Partnerships Strategist\, to add images\, captions\, and depicts statements to Wikipedia. In this interactive workshop\, you’ll be exposed to Wikipedia editing skills in a relaxed setting (no experience necessary!) while contributing to the impact of CML’s project! \nPlease register here.
