Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S16E5 - Fernando Rubio - The Rise of OER in Language Teaching and Learning
Q: Why is there still reluctance in adopting OER in language education?
Concerns about quality stemming from perceptions that traditionally published materials are superior, as well as faculty reluctance to invest the necessary time in creating quality materials contribute to this hesitance.
S16E5 - Fernando Rubio - The Rise of OER in Language Teaching and Learning
Q: What are some of the benefits of creating and using OER specifically in language teaching and learning?
The most obvious benefit is that OER are free, which addresses the rising costs of educational materials, while also providing a platform for a diverse range of voices and adaptability in resource production.
S16E5 - Fernando Rubio - The Rise of OER in Language Teaching and Learning
Q: What are OER and how did this movement start?
OER refers to Open Educational Resources that are freely accessible and can be repurposed. The movement began around 15 years ago as part of the open education movement with the aim of democratizing access to high-quality education materials.
S16E5 - Fernando Rubio - The Rise of OER in Language Teaching and Learning
Q: Fernando, before we dig into all things OER, would you please tell us about your background and path with languages?
Dr. Rubio shared that he has been involved with language teaching for close to three decades, primarily focusing on language acquisition, particularly in Spanish.
S16E3 - Ellen Jovin & Brandt Johnson - Rebel with a Clause
Q: What are you hoping that audiences will take away from the film in particular and maybe also the book?
I hope that viewers have a meaningful experience that is uplifting, joyous, and that emphasizes connecting with others across differences.
