A Remixed Book Turns into an Open Playlist

I met Jay Fulgencio as part of the first cohort of RLOE last year. I was curious to learn more about Fulgencio’s OER work, and today I watched the recorded Open Ed 2021 session entitled “Applying OER Content to Create a YouTube Mini-Course Playlist.” Fulgencio has been an instructor for more than a decade and has taught several subjects. The lightning talk focused on Open Education Practices, Getting Started, Tools, and some Examples. Fulgencio used Educause’s open education definition. Fulgencio explained that they use a playlist of OER. OEP, open education practices, save money and provide control to students. To get started, Fulgencio said that we have to start with the question: why do you want to create a source? Fulgencio shared the entrepreneurship playlist. Fulgencio prepared a timeline, drafted a storyboard from the book chapters, and then recorded the videos. Fulgencio talked about institutions providing software and open. Fulgencio has a website and encouraged contacting for support. Fulgencio uses OER textbooks to remix them to create these resources. Fulgencio shared an example of an Entrepreneurship 101 course and how it is available on YouTube. The videos can be used and remixed! They are edited and based on storyboards! Fulgencio mentioned the microphone and lights they use. This is helpful for comparison. I will have to follow up with Fulgencio to learn more about their RLOE strategic plans and video playlists!
