Bright and Shiny Open Education - Or Not?

Date Friday, Nov 25  Time   –    Room Potsdam III

In this session we will discuss initiatives that are supporting the design, implementation and adoption of Open Education through Open Education Innovation Labs, Open Degrees and Open Educational Resources. Speakers will cover well-known benefits such as inclusion, cost savings and customisation, but also the lesser known such as learner engagement and fostering of critical thinking. At the end we will add some questionmarks about the challenges and limitations of Open Educationional Resources. Join to see the adherents and non-believers coming into action!
