Subject: [OSList] Higher Education Open Space organized by the EU
Good morning OpenSpacers:
I have received from afriend this mail that announces a “Higher Education Open
Space” organized bythe European Union. He sent this to me, I think, because EU
was adopting "Open Space" andhe expected me to be happy with that. Here is the
mail I havereceived: Campus Europe Higher Education Open Space
The HigherEducation Open Space (HEOS) 2015,following up the Council's
communiqué after Yerevan willprovide universities, students and stakeholder
representatives an open,innovative and creative space for discussion on joint
approaches to facethese challenges. It also aims to contribute in a concrete
way tothe modernisation of higher education and to buildalliances to reinforce
the competitiveness and governance of Europeanuniversities. It will allow for
policy discussions and practical workingsessions through two main events: a
conference on the 3rd of Novemberon how to reach 20% of student mobility by
2020 while maintaining the qualityof mobility flows; an Open Space on the
4th-5th of November addressingtopical issues of universities, students and
stakeholders in the field of the modernisation agenda. Registeruntil 30
September 2015! If one looks forthe Program
(http://uni-foundation.eu/higher-education-open-space/conference)one finds the
Agenda below (after my signature). There are a lotof speakers!!! But even in
relation with the sessions that could be "open": 1) The sessionon ”Disruptive
innovation in the field of student mobility” has 4 experts speaking about it(no
students as far as I can see) 2) The session of “GroupDiscussion” (14:00 -
15:00) has 4 predefinedsubjects: · Funding strategies to increase
exchanges · Length matters: 1 semester vs. 1 year abroad · Ad-hoc
partnerships and international consortia · The increasing importance of
QA and recognition of credits
3)The Round-table (15:30 - 17:00) has 2 speakers (Profs). So my questionsare:
- Is this Open Space? - What is the conceptof "Open Space" of the
European Union? - Did they get that name(Open Space) from OST facilitators
from Europe or it was only the fact that “Open”is cool (and “Closed” is awful)
and they don’t even know what OST is? I would like to have other opinions,
especially fromEuropean facilitators more close to the center of Europe
(somewhere in the line fromBrussels to Berlin…) Regards and have anice week end
