From 26 to 28 April, the University: Future Festival 2023 of the Hochschulforum Digitalisierung and the Stiftung Innovation in der Hochschullehre will take place as a hybrid event on various presence stages in Germany as well as in the digital space.

One of the presence stages is located in Bochum and is coordinated by the office of the NRW state portal ORCA.nrw.

Track: Openness & Vision

How can university teaching be made open? What good practices are there in Open Educational Resources (OER)? How do OER reach a broad audience? What are the very long lines of development, what will higher education look like in 20 years? And what can politics do to support positive developments?

The Openness & Vision track is aimed at people who look at the big picture and are interested in openness. It is about visions of the future, openness as a principle, politics and, of course, Open Educational Resources.

The Openness & vision track is coordinated by ORCA.nrw.

The University:Future Festival 2023 is organised under the motto “Heads up” by the Hochschulforum Digitalisierung and the Stiftung Innovation in der Hochschullehre. Digital First” applies, as the full programme can only be experienced online. In addition, various physical stages throughout Germany will enable participants to meet and network. Talks, discussion rounds, workshops and micro training sessions will also provide opportunities for exchange and collaboration.

Of interest are topics and developments in the future of higher education in the form of a “heads up”, i.e. an advance information or warning to look constructively into the future. The thematic focus lies on technology, didactics, strategy development, competences and architectures, among others. The programme will be shaped largely on the basis of submissions from the community and additionally complemented by VIP speakers.
