education, we are delighted to announce *the 3rd Opening Educational
Practices Scotland Forum on Thursday 5th November 2015, at 200 St Vincent

   pedagogy
   - provide insight into practical ways to get started, deepen or enhance
   your understanding of OEP
   - share the project’s progress, plans and findings
   - explore how OEPS can help you and your organisation – and how to get
   involved in the project
   - enable participants to build their own network of open educational
   practitioners

* We do this by:*

   - Bringing together leading practitioners
   - Providing workshops on leading edge topics as well as introductory
   sessions for those new to OEP
   - Encouraging groups from organisations to come to the forum to learn
   together
   - Building time into the programme for participants to network
   - Facilitating sessions where the project can learn from participants’
   knowledge and experience
