“…A recent development in the textbook market has been the emergence of Open Educational Resources (OER), which are free online to the student. There is research supporting the use of OER textbooks (Clinton, 2018; Hilton, 2016); however, the findings of studies focused specifically on General Psychology OER products compared to traditional textbooks have been mixed regarding student outcomes (Clinton, in press) and quality (Clinton, in press; Griggs & Jackson, 2017). In our most recent customization cycle, we considered the OER option.…”

This paper describes a model for the articulation and assessment of goals in the development and use of a general psychology custom textbook. A description of custom textbooks is presented, and the specific textbook that our Psychology Department has developed is discussed. Two studies present data on student and faculty perceptions of the effectiveness of the textbook. Study 1 involved faculty members who used the custom textbook, and Study 2 included students who were enrolled in General Psychology. For both studies, perceived benefits and drawbacks of the custom textbook were surveyed, as well as the helpfulness of its various components. Results revealed higher satisfaction with the custom textbook as compared to a traditional text, as well as consistency between faculty and students in the perceived helpfulness of different components of the text. Results also indicated that the original goals of the project were met. The benefits and drawbacks of using a custom text and the importance of having clear goals before beginning a customization project were discussed.

ZusammenfassungOpen Educational Resources (OER) bilden ein wichtiges Element im Diskurs über eine Digitalisierung von Bildung. Der Beitrag erhebt den Stand der internationalen empirischen Forschung zu OER, um dadurch Desiderate für eine zukünftige Forschungsagenda aufzuzeigen. Mittels eines systematischen Mapping-Ansatzes wird dafür die empirische, englischsprachige Forschungslandschaft kartiert. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass Forschung vor allem im Hochschulbereich betrieben wird und wenige Studien für den Bereich Schule vorliegen. Forschungsmethodisch sind quantitative Studien prävalent, die vorwiegend umfragebasiert durchgeführt werden. Das primäre Forschungsinteresse der Studien konzentriert sich auf Wahrnehmungsfaktoren von OER sowie auf deren Übernahme und Nutzung in der Bildungspraxis. Ein weiteres Forschungsfeld sind Offene Textbücher und deren komparative Kostenvorteile oder qualitative Vergleichbarkeit mit kostenpflichtigem Bildungsmaterial. Forschungsdesiderate liegen im Feld der Usability respektive Benutzerfreundlichkeit von OER-Repositorien. Forschung hierzu könnte die zahlreichen Bundesländerinitiativen zur Etablierung von OER-Landesportalen unterstützen. Weitere Forschungslücken finden sich bei den Effekten der Nutzung von OER auf das pädagogische Handeln und die Veränderungen etablierter Bildungspraktiken.

“…Similarly, we could identify common elements with a narrative review, such as the search or review of the complete literature or not; and may or may not include a quality assessment, which is in line with our work. This type of review is truly useful in education since it allows us to detail in a justified and understandable way certain realities that may go unnoticed [ 20 ]. Narrative reviews help the reader understand the essence of the content displayed, providing evidence and justification for the text [ 21 ].…”

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a global strategy that aims to obtain a more equitable and just world. These objectives are organized into 17 SDGs, detailing 169 targets. Different international institutions have emphasized the relevance of education to developing citizens who contribute to achieving the SDGs for 2030. However, a review focused on physical education (PE) has yet to be performed. Therefore, the objective of this work is two-fold. First, to analyze and select the specific SDGs that can be implemented in the area of physical education. Second, to relate these specific goals to the different models based on physical education practices. This review showed how three institutional documents have previously related sport, physical exercise, and physical education to specific SDGs. Based on the search done, this review article selects those goals that could be integrated into the educational context through physical education. The bibliographic and critical analysis in this research shows that of the 169 specific goals proposed in the SDGs, only 24 could be worked on in physical education. Upon completion of the analysis, a proposal for the relationship between the practice-based models and these 24 goals is presented. The contributions made in this paper will allow teachers to establish links between PE sessions and SDGs while raising awareness to develop students who contribute to a more sustainable world.
