Proyek Adicita 2022

From Creative Commons Indonesia

Wikimedia Alliances Fund 2022 merupakan proyek Creative Commons Indonesia yang didukung oleh Wikimedia Foundation mulai tanggal 1 Juli 2022 – 30 Juni 2023.

Latar belakang

The Indonesian government has taken several steps towards open education & utilizing OER. As stated in the Indonesian Higher Education Act, UU No 12, 2012, Article 70, paragraph 4, “The government shall develop open educational resources that can be used by the entire academic community”. There are many OER initiatives that have been launched in Indonesia since 2013, such as Garda Rujukan Digital, RumahBelajar, TV Edukasi, & Suara Edukasi. Based on OER World Map data, some universities in Indonesia have also set up their own OER portals (e.g., Universitas Terbuka, Universitas Airlangga, Universitas Syiah Kuala). However, studies on OER in Indonesia have highlighted the challenges of implementing it here, with incomplete conceptions of copyright, open licensing issues, lack of awareness of the concept of OER, misinterpretation of open education, & poor adoption of OER in Indonesian higher education settings.

Since 2012, Creative Commons Indonesia (CCID) has sought to address these issues through events educating Indonesians, particularly educators, on the use of OER. CC licenses are the most commonly used open licenses in OER. Unfortunately, there is limited understanding & even misconceptions among Indonesian educators & students about copyright & open licenses, which are the foundations of OER. Our most recent project was CCID OER Bootcamp, an intensive OER content creator training class for Indonesian educators. Based on the positive responses from this Bootcamp, we want to scale up this training by producing OER socialization materials, developing OER training modules, training OER trainers, and inviting more educators and strategic partners to participate in training on the use & production of OER for teaching & learning.

In practice, OER & Wikimedia Projects such as Wikimedia Commons & Wikibooks are interconnected. Wikimedia projects, which are openly licensed with CC licenses, can be the source for developing OERs, while the produced content can be subsequently uploaded back into these projects. In particular, we aim to focus on Wikimedia Commons & Wikibooks.

The term, OER, is not popular among educators in Indonesia. Last year, CCID was invited by several government institutions to explain OER. The main problem encountered was the difficulty of finding & accessing education/communication materials specifically in Bahasa Indonesia. There is a dearth of booklets/guidance on OER, in general.

Other than the lack of promotion, a trainer is also needed when educators want to practice OER for the first time. However, the number of trainers who have sufficient knowledge of OER in Indonesia is currently very limited. In this program, we expect to raise the level of access to & awareness of Wikimedia projects by educators, increase the amount of content contributed to Wikibooks & Wikimedia Commons, as well as the quality thereof, & consequently strengthen the fostering & understanding of open licenses & OER.

Tahapan

Untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut, kami menjalankan tiga tahapan utama: (1) Pengembangan dan Dukungan Komunitas, (2) Pendidikan, (3) GLAM, dan (4) Peningkatan Konten.

First Stage: creating educational materials/booklets and modules that can be used as resources for OER trainers, OER training of participants, and growing the number of OER trainers. Key activities include:

1. Distributing 250 surveys to individuals working in agencies/higher education/libraries who’ve utilized/managed OER in the past. This survey should determine the level of public understanding of OER and highlight current OER misconceptions.

2. Preparing two booklets (OER in general and a practical guide on making/using OER) and an OER module for trainers, based on the results of Stage 1. The booklet and module will then be used by participants and trainers during the OER Training & other institutions in Indonesia.

3. Holding an open discussion with relevant stakeholders in producing the OER booklets, to ensure they can answer all the questions & misconceptions in the community based on the survey in Point 1.

Second Stage: socialization and promotion of OER to the public & relevant actors in the education sector (e.g., educators, lecturers, students, librarians, Ministry of Education officials). Key activities of this stage:

1. Four workshops and three webinars in collaboration with key stakeholder institutions (e.g., Ministry of Education, Open University, Wikimedia Indonesia, & universities). In these events, we will promote our OER training.

2. Creating and promoting various communication media on OER; i.e., infographics, posters, and subtitles of OER videos based on the booklets in Stage 1, as well as existing OER videos in English. All of these media will be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, as well as CCID & WMID social media.

Third Stage: fostering further growth of OER trainers and providing intensive OER training for educators. Key activities of this stage include:

1. Training of trainers and facilitators for the OER training.

2. Conducting OER training, building on the outcomes of the OER Bootcamp to implement this training. Around 40 strategic educators will be targeted as participants. The output of this training will be open textbooks and other forms of OER, which will be uploaded to Wikibooks and Wikimedia Commons.

3. Showcasing participants’ OERs, further promoting OER to a greater number of people.

4. Inviting the best three participants to hold a workshop on OER.
