Open Education Challenges
20
Funding Models On average every course we publish costs us about $10,000 to $15,000. (MIT OCW)
21
Rights One of the most significant barriers to OER development is the need to obtain permission from the holders of the relevant intellectual property rights. (Committee for Economic Development, 2009)
22
Faculty Engagement The success of curricular resource strategies depends on faculty willingness to openly share their intellectual property by contributing it to open educational resource sites. (Bell, 2010)
23
Open Access
24
A Quick Definition “Open access is the principle that publicly funded research should be accessible online, for free, immediately after publication.”
25
University Environment Typically, when someone pays you to do work, copyright is transferred to the employer. Most universities have agreements stating that faculty own copyright in their scholarly works.
26
Publisher Agreements Academic authors traditionally transfer exclusive, full copyrights to the publishers of the journals in which their articles appear. Many disadvantages to this approach…
27
Subscribers Only
28
No Google
29
No Course Packs
30
No Course Websites
31
No Professional Websites
32
No Sharing with Colleagues
33
No Reuse
34
No Preservation Guarantee
35
No Mashups
36
YOU may not have access
37
Traditional landscape Publicly funded projects Faculty time & expertise Rights given to publisher free of charge University pays to buy back access
38
Open Access Journals (Gold) Peer-reviewed, scientific and scholarly journals Author confers non-exclusive publication rights Author retains ownership/control 100% free full text access

49
Funding Models Many models transfer the costs of scholarly publishing to the university. BUT we already pay, so it’s just a redirection of funds.
50
Rights Management Strategies
51
Lack of Copyright Knowledge 49% of authors have signed publishing agreements without understanding the terms. - OAKLaw National Survey of Australian Academic Authors
52
Unsure of Depositing Rights Over 50% of authors were unsure if they were allowed to self archive under past and recent publishing agreements. - OAKLaw National Survey of Australian Academic Authors
53
Finding Publisher Policies
54
Canadian Author Addendum Publishers require only permission to publish an article, not a wholesale transfer of copyright. Grant specific rights while holding back rights for yourself and others. http://www.carl-abrc.ca/projects/author/EngPubAgree.pdf
55
Creative Commons Licenses legally valid no charge prevents some uses of a work without permission, authorizes others.
56
Creative Commons Licenses Attribution Attribution Non-commercial Attribution No Derivatives Attribution Share Alike
57
Faculty Engagement
58
Collective Agreement We will regard a record of open access publication as evidence of service to the community, in evaluation of applications for faculty appointments, promotions and grants.
59
Institutional OA Policies Collective, university-wide action. Faculty agreements to retain author rights, and allow open access to intellectual output.

67
OA Success 20% of peer-reviewed articles across all disciplines are now freely available
