Open Teaching in a Digital Age ‘ Openness’ as the default action of the academic? Create License Remix Share Prepared by: Michael Paskevicius & Michelle Willmers

The Notion of Academia

Education is a social service

Education should be about the greater good

Academic is the creator of learning materials and tools

Internet is changing research and teaching practice

Sharing doesn’t cost anything anymore

The internet is creating new channels for collaboration and feedback

Learning materials are social objects

Sharing builds networks

Sharing transforms practice

Reach and impact is extended

Do you share a little or share a lot?
