Open Pedagogy: Interconnected Branches
“Access-oriented” responsibility to learner-driven education empowering students “to engage in the field of public knowledge and content creation” (KPU, 2023)
An image of a tree is surrounded by references to research by different authors. Each reference has an image of a leaf next to it.
- Community
- Open pedagogy energizes students to transfer knowledge to the broader public by “drawing in wider communities of learners” (Elder, 2019).
- Digital Autonomy
- Students co-create open access information and choose to license their work. Civic and critical decision-making grows as learners consider “for whom” their work is produced (DeRosa, 2017).
- Renewed Sustainability
- Renewable assignments extend student engagement and provide growth for current and future learners (Open Education Group, 2022).
- Care & Compassion
- A culture of care forms the trunk of open pedagogy. “Openness embodies inclusivity” through brave spaces, scaffolded instruction, and universal design (Bali, 2015).
- Social Justice
- Open pedagogy is rooted in equitable access to diverse materials and perspectives by centering marginalized experiences and learner autonomy (DeRosa, 2017).

Table representing the information in the visual model
| Challenge Level | Classroom Audience | Wider Classroom Audience | Outside Classroom Audience | Outside Audience |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Highest Challenge Level | Students write their own assignment prompt and grading rubric | Students submit all assignments to class blog or ePortfolio and provide classmates with regular feedback | Students create or update a course reader for future students | Students co-author and submit an article to an open access journal |
| Second-Highest Challenge Level | Students identify a learning gap and work with the instructor to create a tool to help them fill those gaps | Students customize an open textbook for local context by adding relevant images and examples | After finishing a unit of study, students create video introductions to the material for future students | Students create open designs for 3d printing of useful objects |
| Second-Lowest Challenge Level | Students pick the format or genre of their project (infographic, standup routine, vlog, etc.) | Students use census data to do market research | Students create lecture slides for future terms | Students write and submit a letter to an editor |
| Lowest Challenge Level | Students choose the appropriate CC license for their work | Students create definitions for a class glossary by identifying terms that come up in lectures and discussions | Students contribute a data point to an open access spreadsheet | Students write and distribute an open zine |
More information about the row/column headers representing the levels of challenge and audience type
Challenge level
- Lowest Challenge Level requires students to go beyond traditional assignments and use open practices
- Second-Lowest Challenge Level requires students to cultivate agency by using open practices
- Second-Highest Challenge Level requires students to treat the curriculum as incomplete and asks students to help other students
- Highest Challenge Level requires an ontological shift where the student positions themselves as a source of expertise
Audience type
- Classroom Audience: Assignments that use class content, viewed only by the instructor
- Wider Classroom Audience: Assignments shared within the class, or that use open content within the class
- Outside Classroom Audience: Assignments shared with future students, or assignments shared with outside audiences that allow the student to maintain anonymity
- Outside Audience: Assignments shared under the student’s name with an outside audiences, using professional conventions with more rules

Three steps in the incarceration process
The first step is being accused. A person is accused of a crime by county, state, or local law enforcement. A SWAT team in helmets and bulletproof vests is pictured. A person can also be accused by a federal agency, including the Bureau of Alcohol, Firearms, Tobacco and Explosives; the Drug Enforcement Administration; the U.S. Marshals Service; Homeland Security; the Secret Service; the Bureau of Indian Affairs; the Inspector General’s Office; the Fish and Wildlife Service; or the Internal Revenue Service. Federal agents with guns and walkie talkies are pictured.
The second step is going to jail. Jails house people not convicted of a crime, awaiting sentencing, or serving shorter sentences (less than one year). Persons pending charges are incarcerated, meaning they don’t have access to the community. Convicted people with longer terms are sent to prison after sentencing. A sparse jail cell is pictured with a bunk bed, chair, and locker.
The third step is imprisonment. People may be imprisoned in either a federal prison run by the Bureau of Prison, which houses people convicted of a crime by the U.S. Attorney’s Office. They may also be housed in a state prison, where people convicted of a crime at the state level by a District Attorney’s Office go. There is a picture of a federal prison with guard towers and a state prison, which is a collection of nondescript cement buildings.

Globally, and in every region, the prevalence of food insecurity is higher among women than men.
A line chart shows moderate or severe food insecurity for both women and men in different regions of the world from 2015 to 2020. The lines are often close, but women are always more food insecure than men. Throughout the world, food insecurity has risen for both women and men (from around 20% in 2015 to over 30% for women in 2020). The two lines diverge the most for Latin America and the Caribbean, where food insecurity went from approximately 25% in 2015 to over 40% in 2020. Food insecurity rates for both men and women are highest in Africa (almost 60% for both men and women in 2020) and lowest in North America (between 10 and 15% in 2020).
