3. Open Education
• “a collection of practices that utilize online technology to freely share
knowledge“ (University of British Columbia)
14/9/2015
Creating a free and shared teaching-learning culture to improve access to
quality education

4. Open Educational Resources (OER)
• “Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching, learning, and research
materials in any medium that reside in the public domain or have been released
under an open license that permits their free use and re-purposing by others.”
(Hewlett Foundation)
• Technology-enabled, open provision of educational resources for consultation,
use and adaptation by a community of users for non-commercial purposes
(UNESCO, 2002).
• “OER include full courses, course materials, modules, textbooks, streaming
videos, tests, software, and any other tools, materials, or techniques used to
support access to knowledge” (Hewlett Foundation)
• Teaching-learning and research materials released with an open license to permit
reuse and repurpose in whole or in part
• Core of OER is how a resource is licensed for use, rather than the format of the
resource itself

• Transform education from knowledge transfer model to collaborative
teaching-learning model
• Depart from rigid publishing models and curricula and develop customized
textbooks
• Increase ‘Academic freedom’ for faculty
• Enhance institution’s and faculty reputation
• Social responsibility (individual or corporate) – “education for all”
• Adaptation and repurposing build technology-enabled teaching-learning
capacity amongst educators
• Save costs for students
