The future of Open Education and OEaaS from the learning industry perspective

Possible pathways for the learning industry to approach OE and OEaaS To continue a productive discourse between the OE community and the rest of the learning industry for the benefit of both. The key to a productive discourse would include: •  The commercial learning industry to appreciate the innovation opportunities, the new cultural and behavioural aspects of OE and to focus on the pragmatic, business strategic and sustainable elements of OE rather than stressing ideological differences. •  The OE community to become aware of the potential business requirements, threats and commercial factors associated with OE in order to drive commercial attention, funding and support to OE. •  A dialogue on the level of pragmatic collaboration opportunities, funding schemes and business models. •  A dialogue with policy makers on funding schemes and procurement policies – e.g. in the public educational sector - that would better support OE commercial activities and not implicitly regard OE as non-commercial.
