The devel­op­ments of the last two and a half years clearly show that arti­fi­cial intel­li­gence (AI) will affect and sig­nif­i­cantly change all areas of higher edu­ca­tion. This is par­tic­u­larly true in the area of uni­ver­sity teach­ing and there­fore the pro­duc­tion of teach­ing and learn­ing mate­ri­als. Since it has become pos­si­ble to cre­ate teach­ing and learn­ing mate­ri­als at the touch of a but­ton with just a few prompts, and since this con­tent is then also con­sid­ered a pub­lic domain work — unless cre­ative prompt chains and inde­pen­dent rework­ing reach a level of cre­ativ­ity that estab­lishes an indi­vid­ual copy­right — ques­tions have arisen about the impact of these devel­op­ments on open edu­ca­tional resources (OER):

• Will teach­ing and learn­ing mate­ri­als be gen­er­ated pri­mar­ily by gen­er­a­tive AI tools in the future?
• If so, do we still need CC licenses if AI-gen­er­ated con­tent is largely in the pub­lic domain?
• In this case, are OER repos­i­to­ries still the right places to store this pub­lic domain con­tent in the long term, or will open LMSs increas­ingly be used for this?
• What con­tri­bu­tion can OER and cor­re­spond­ing repos­i­to­ries make to open edu­ca­tion in the future?
• Or are OER pos­si­bly the ideal basis for copy­right-com­pli­ant train­ing of LLMs or enrich­ment via RAG solu­tions to help improve the qual­ity of AI-gen­er­ated con­tent?
• And how can the use of AI pro­mote the devel­op­ment and dis­sem­i­na­tion of OER?

We want to address these and other ques­tions in light­ning talks and an in-depth dis­cus­sion between Dr. San­dra Schön and PD. Dr. Malte Per­sike to the topic. Par­tic­i­pants are cor­dially invited to take part in the dis­cus­sion in a sec­ond part of the talk.

10:00 — 10:10 Welcome/opening: Dr. Marc Göcks (MMKH/HOOU) and Dr. Klaus Wan­nemacher (HIS-HE/twillo)

10:10 — 10:25 Intro­duc­tion of HIS-HE based on empir­i­cal results of own stud­ies (Dr. Math­ias Stein and Funda Seyfeli-Özhiza­lan, HIS-HE)

10:25 — 10:45 1st Light­ning Talk: AI-gen­er­ated meta­data (Axel Klinger, TIB Han­nover)

10:45 — 11:05 2nd Light­ning Talk: OER as the basis for an AI chat­bot using the exam­ple of iMooX (PD Dr. Mar­tin Ebner, TU Graz)

11:05 — 11:25 pos­si­bly 3rd Light­ning-Talk: N.N.

11:25 — 12:30 Dis­cus­sion on the title of the event between Dr. San­dra Schön (TU Graz) and PD Dr. Malte Per­sike (RWTH Aachen). The dis­cus­sion will be accom­pa­nied by Dr. Klaus Wan­nemacher (HIS-HE/twillo)

12:30 Farewell by the orga­niz­ers

Orga­niz­ers are the Mul­ti­me­dia Kon­tor Ham­burg (MMKH) and the Lower Sax­ony OER por­tal twillorep­re­sented by HIS-HE, in part­ner­ship with the AG OER-Qual­ität des Coop­er­a­tion Net­work OER (KNOER) and the Ham­burg Open Online Uni­ver­sity HOOU.
