Competencies for Production, Search, Diffusion and Mobilization of Open Educational Resources
(Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2017-12-31) García-López, Ramona Imelda; Cuevas, O.; Ramírez-Montoya, María-Soledad; Tenorio-Sepúlveda, Gloria; Technological Institute of Sonora; Tecnológico de Monterrey
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the achievement of competencies for production, search, diffusion and open educational resources through a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC). The development of this project required the participation of 10 institutions of higher education in Mexico*, as well as financial support from the National System of Distance Education (SINED). This is a quantitative research and the participants were 134 teachers in Mexico and other Latin American countries. Rubrics were used to evaluate the competencies mentioned (which conformed the four modules object of study); each was broken down into indicators and self-assessment was used with the student (basic), beginner (intermediate) and expert (advanced) criteria. It was found that in the three levels of competency, the total percentage is very similar in the four modules: Basic level is between 0.5% y 3.9%, intermediate, around 30.0% and 31.5% and advanced around 65.4% and 69.5%.
In-service teachers’ self-perceptions of digital competence and OER use as determined by a xMOOC training course
(Elsevier, 2017-09) Ramírez-Montoya, María-Soledad; Mena, Juanjo; Rodríguez-Arroyo, José A.; Tecnologico de Monterrey; Matthieu Guitton
Digital Competence (DC) is considered a driver for educational innovation since its immediate result is the production of new digital media resources for teaching such as Open Educational Resources (OER). This study aims to determine teachers' DC through their participation in a MOOC training course and establish the extent to which DC better enables the production of OER. A group of 863 in-service teachers participated in the study. A 26-item validated questionnaire on DC and the use of OER was delivered to participants, and course facilitators' weekly reports were collected. An ordinal logarithmic regression was conducted to verify whether teachers who hold positive self-perceptions of DC are more prone to using OER in their teaching. Mean differences between traditional teaching and online teaching were also tested. Reports were content analysed using a SWOT matrix. Our model predicts that only in-service teachers that perceive themselves as digital experts can reach an intermediate level in the production of OER. Furthermore, online teaching significantly favours teachers' DC but is highly significant in OER production. The main implication is that training teachers' DC is required to prepare teachers for the use of OER; however, teacher education should first address teachers’ actual level of performance.
