The TURN Conference 2023 at the TH Köln aims to promote knowledge transfer as a product laboratory. Participants have the opportunity to develop their ideas, concepts and studies in fixed time slots, supported by experienced writing advisors and other experts. It is irrelevant whether the contributions are without systematic preliminary work (ideas), contributions with systematic preliminary work (drafts) or contributions ready for publication (publish). The main focus is on disseminating the results for easy adaptation by colleagues. To facilitate this transfer, all contributions will be made available under an open licence as OER.

Study on requirements for an OER-promoting IT infrastructure

In the higher education context, open educational infrastructures are of great importance as they enable free access to teaching and learning materials. Although a large number of OER portals and tools have now been established, there are still obstacles to the widespread dissemination of open materials. A key challenge is to better connect existing infrastructures and establish a universally accepted standard vocabulary for teaching and learning materials. KNOER partner organisations, such as the North Rhine-Westphalian OER portal ORCA.nrw and the Virtual Campus Rhineland-Palatinate (VCRP), together with the HIS Institute for Higher Education Development and the Innovation in Higher Education Foundation, conducted a study to investigate the state of development of open educational infrastructures for higher education institutions. The study by Dr. Klaus Wannemacher included a literature review, an expert workshop and expert interviews to identify requirements for an open education infrastructure from a technical, didactic and organisational perspective.
