The future isn’t what it used to be was one of the keynotes presented at the OER24 conference in Cork, Ireland, 28 March 2024, given by Dr Catherine Cronin and Professor Laura Czerniewicz. It was about the problems facing the open education movement and challenged the audience to create a better future “We have adapted the “manifesto for higher education for good” (Czerniewicz & Cronin, 2023) as a framing device”. They wrote a paper of their talk, which is embedded in this blog post

The open-access book cited above is:
Czerniewicz, L. & Cronin, C. (Eds). (2023). Higher Education for Good: Teaching and Learning Futures. OpenBook. The framework they refer to is:
– Name and analyze the problems of HE (Higher Education)
– Challenge assumptions and resist hegemonies
– Make claims for just, humane, and globally sustainable HE
– Courageously imagine and share fresh possibilities
– Make positive changes, here and now
BTW the book has a chapter discussing data literacy, but not information literacy, sad to say.
