16. What
is
Open
Educa*on?
Open education encompasses resources, tools and practices that
employ a framework of open sharing to improve educational access
and effectiveness worldwide.
Open Education combines the traditions of knowledge sharing and
creation with 21st century technology to create a vast pool of openly
shared educational resources, while harnessing today’s collaborative
spirit to develop educational approaches that are more responsive to
learner’s needs.

the term MOOC.The course, called
“Connectivism and Connective Knowledge,” was
presented to 25 tuition-paying students at the
University of Manitoba and offered at the same
time to around 2,300 students from the general
public who took the online class at no cost.
