Open Education Resource: From Traditional to Flipped with

MOODLE

Section 1: INTRODUCTION

The Open Education Resource is a collection resources and activities that have been created on a

Learning Management System (LMS) called MOODLE. The activities and resources provided

on Moodle will provide students with material and work to be done as out-of-class activity, while

flipping the classroom.

There are four topics as part of this OER on the topic- Leadership. Each topic deals with a

separate aspect of Leadership, which is an integral part of Management education. Leadership is

the process of motivating a group of people to act towards achieving common goal. Every

manager is a leader as he/she leads a team. So in order to be an effective manager, he/she has to

develop leadership skill.

In this OER, we will be exploring,

- Concept of Leadership

- Difference between Manager and Leader

- Qualities to become a good Leader

- Leadership Styles

- Applying this conceptual knowledge in real-life situation (high-order thinking)

Section 4: EVALUATING EFFECTIVENESS OF OER

The effectiveness of OER can be assessed at two levels, learner’s level and teacher’s Level.

The effectiveness of these activities can be assessed mainly on the basis of three levels:-

Engagement

Learning

Perception

Learner Level:-

Learner’s level evaluation will be based on learning and the access of the resources.

Engagement level can be evaluated on the basis of activity reports and completion reports.

Evaluation can be done at reaction level on the basis of feedback surveys by considering the

usefulness of this activity. For Learning level, evaluation will be possible by considering their

scores in quizzes.

Section 6: Building a Community of MOODLE Users

Possible Sources for Community Building:

Some of the viable sources for building a community are:

Teachers who are using MOODLE

Teachers who plan to use Flipped Classroom Strategies

Teachers who intend to increase their usage of ICT tools.

Plans for Community Building:

The resource created is an open one and is available in an open webpage. It can be accessed from

anywhere and the use of moodle requires self-enrolment with their own email ids. These email

ids’s can be accessed to create a community of interested users. The details of this community

would then be uploaded on the Wordpress web page so that more people can join in.
