Open pedagogy

"Open pedagogy refers to projects that involve students in the production—rather than simply the consumption—of knowledge. Open pedagogy projects invite students to move beyond the “disposable assignment,” a term coined by David Wiley to describe assignments that are created for a grade, seen only by a course instructor, and then thrown away (2013). Instead, open pedagogy projects involve students in openly sharing and contributing to knowledge in a public and enduring way. Involving students in the publishing process also provides an educational opportunity where students can explore issues of intellectual property, copyright, and open access, and get hands-on experience with writing for publication and participating in peer review. Library publishing programs can support open pedagogy by providing opportunities for students to participate in publishing projects both within and beyond their classrooms."
