5. Commissioner Vassiliou (2) express it as:
The education landscape is changing dramatically, from
school to university and beyond: open technology-based
education will soon be a 'must have', not just a 'good-to-
have', for all ages. We need to do more to ensure that young
people especially are equipped with the digital skills they
need for their future. It's not enough to understand how to
use an app or program; we need youngsters who can create
their own programs. Opening up Education is about opening
minds to new learning methods so that our people are more
employable, creative, innovative and entrepreneurial

6. Creating opportunities for organisations, teachers
and learners to innovate
Increased use of Open Educational Resources
(OER), ensuring that educational materials
produced with public funding are available to all
Better ICT infrastructure and connectivity in
schools (EC 2013)

7. review their organisational strategies
exploit the potential of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs)
stimulate innovative learning practices such as blended learning
equip teachers with high digital skills and digital competences
equip learners with digital skills and digital competences
think about how to validate and recognise learner’s achievements in
online education
make high quality Open Education Resources (OER) visible and
accessible

8. What does EC mean with
Opening up education?
Opening up education means bringing
the digital revolution into education.
Digital technologies allow all
individuals to learn, anywhere,
anytime, through any device, with the
support of anyone
Ossiannilsson2014

9. Main message Xavier Prats-Monne of
the EC
“What can
MOOCs do?” is
not relevant any
longer; rather, we
have to ask
"What should
MOOCs do?”
Will affect higher
education and that the
traditional educational
map must be redrawn
with other structures,
colors, models,
pedagogy, organization,
management

Small and short - bite-sized learning
Continuous - a steady flow of learning
On demand - when I want/need it
Social - community of interest
Anywhere, anytime, any device (Hart 2014)

23. Beyond the MOOCs…
• What key policy issues
does openness pose for
institutions?
• Do institutional quality
practices need to
change?
• Will openness change
the spending priorities
of institutions?
Ossiannilsson2014

24. How can we support more autonomy in
learning?
How can we enable shorter learning
experiences?
How can we encourage ongoing learning?
How can we support learning at the point of
need?
How can we balance the need for
authoritative content and knowledge
sharing?
How can we encourage anywhere learning?
