Will Open Education Take Root in the Traditional HE Sector?
The Internet, increasingly affordable computing and bandwidth, open licensing, open access journals and open educational resources (OER) provide the foundation for a world in which universal access to education is possible. Governments are supporting this shift with a move toward open policies: requiring public access to publicly funded resources. Dr. Greenwill provide an overview of open licensing and OER, and discuss specific examples where institutions, governments and foundations have moved the default on funding, praxis and culture from "closed" to "open."
Presented at the Conference on The State of Digital Education in Malta in January 2017.
