added based directly on eMM. Need to revisit and decide if these categories are on point or not. |
Process Category | Brief Description |
|---|---|
| Organization | Processes associated with institutional planning and management |
| Teaching/Learning | Processes that directly impact teaching and learning |
| Resources | Processes surrounding the creation, delivery, use and maintenance of resources |
| Support | Processes surrounding the oversight and management of community/institutional support |
| Evaluation | Processes surrounding the evaluation and quality control |

attempt below at drilling down on the process categories above based on discussions from the Educause Openness CG. There may be redundancies or items that apply to multiple categories. Ideas are bulleted to be later added to the table. |

Teaching/Learning Processes
Objective
The term open has become popularly used to describe a variety of objects (software and technology, educational resources, education, etc.). Ambiguity exists in the meaning of open, for example open education where anyone can enroll with the only requirement a fee, or open education that is available to anyone, and without a cost. In addition to the ambiguity of open (what it enables), there is also ambiguity with how organizations might operate to allow openness.
The Openness Maturity Model attempts to define open attributes and a means to assess the type of openness within the community of practice responsible for the design, development, and distribution of the open artifact.
Other possible dimensions or indicators to potentially throw into the mix and organize:
OER/OCW
- accessibility of material formats (PDF vs RTF, etc.)
- licensing (CC vs. copyright, etc.)
- portability/interoperability (scorm, cartridges, IMS, etc.
Also, looking again at emm and Ken's comment above- going to enter those process categories at least preliminarily into the above doc.
