1) Who are you?

Believing in multiplicities, I am many things to many people. I currently work as a Project Manager in higher education in Germany, and I am also an Affiliated Researcher at the Open University, UK.

 

2) What is your vibe? Share it in a meme or quote…

Nothing comes to mind that I would like to see written down (and remembered).

3) What gives you hope these days?

The openness, caring and support I see expressed and lived in the #OER20 conference and in the teams I work in, such as the #ICTREV team.

4) Who are you learning from lately?

My family, whose members deal very differently with the uncertainties the Corona virus crisis has brought about.

 

5) In your opinion, what should we all be caring about? Why?

We should seek to achieve a good/better balance between caring for others and caring for ourselves. This means reflecting about one’s own position and expectations with regard to other people’s positions and expectations, and it means looking for common ground rather than divides. Sometimes the only common ground that can be found is “to agree to disagree agreeably”, though! (to quote from a recent conversation with @francesbell about #FemEdTech’s Code of Conduct)

 

 

6) What do you hope to take away from OER20?

New insights and inspirations that I will bring to the different discussions about Open Education I am currently involved in and/or that I will be part of in the future.
