Sharing knowledge is an act of knowing who will use it and for what purpose. This often involves mutually discovering which insights from the past are relevant in the present.\u00a0To share tacit knowledge is to think together.[footnote]R. McDermott, \"Knowing in community: 10 critical success factors in building communities of practice.\" International Association for Human Resource Management<\/em>\u00a04, no.1 (2000): 19\u201326.[\/footnote]<\/blockquote>\r\nWorking to developing a common vision for the group can be a prerequisite for the success of the group. One approach to developing this vision is the CARE Framework. The CARE Framework\u00a0was developed to support open educational resource (OER) stewards on campus. This framework can\u00a0guide the group as you consider developing a shared vision.\r\n

The CARE Framework<\/h1>\r\nThe purpose of the CARE Framework is to articulate a set of shared values and a collective vision for the future of education and learning enabled by the widespread adoption and use of OER. It aims to address the question of how an individual, institution, or organization, seeking to be a good steward, can contribute to the growth and sustainability of the OER movement in a way that is consistent with the community\u2019s values.\r\n\r\nAt the centre of the CARE Framework (see Figure 1) are a wide variety of stakeholders\u2014OER creators and users, working as individuals and as part of organizations, in traditional and non-traditional educational settings\u2014seeking to act as good stewards of the values of a sustainable OER movement. Locating people at the centre of the CARE Framework serves to remind us first and foremost of the broader social context and purpose of the OER movement.<\/b>\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_577\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"500\"]\"OER<\/a> Figure 1: The CARE Framework for OER Stewardship.[\/caption]\r\n\r\nPeople serving as OER stewards pursue a wide variety of strategies and tactics relevant to their specific context to improve access to education and opportunity over time. Yet, what all good OER stewards should have in common is a commitment to practices that serve to demonstrate their duty of care to the broader OER movement:\r\n

  1. C<\/b>ontribute<\/b>.\u00a0OER stewards actively contribute to efforts, whether financially or via in-kind contributions, to advance the awareness, improvement, and distribution of OER.<\/li>\r\n \t
  2. A<\/b>ttribute<\/b>.\u00a0OER stewards practise conspicuous attribution, ensuring that all who create or remix OER are properly and clearly credited for their contributions.<\/li>\r\n \t
  3. R<\/b>elease<\/b>.\u00a0OER stewards ensure OER can be released and used beyond the course and platform in which it was created or delivered.<\/li>\r\n \t
  4. E<\/b>mpower<\/b>.\u00a0OER stewards are inclusive and strive to meet the diverse needs of all learners, including by supporting the participation of new and non-traditional voices in OER creation and adoption.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n
