I recently had the honor of traveling to the MIT campus in Boston and participating in a panel discussion on Open Education Resources (OER) at The Sixth Conference of MIT''s Learning International Networks Consortium (LINC) with three illustrious advocates of these open resources: Nicole Allen, Philipp Schmidt, and panel moderator Steve Carson.
These OER – open educational resources – may be good, bad or indifferent. There’s more bad OER out there than good; that’s a fact,” said Rebecca Kockler, assistant superintendent of academic instruction for the state of Louisiana, at the annual SXSWedu conference last week in Austin, Texas.

Is free curriculum content like a free beer or a free puppy?

“Does Open Pedagogy require OER ?” ” Data and “Research” “We need a little patience” says USC professor Morgan Polikoff , when it comes to evaluating CommonCore. ” Go, School Sports Team! ” asks Clint Lalonde.
At the time, David Wiley expressed his concern that the lawsuit could jeopardize the larger OER movement, if nothing else, by associating open educational materials with piracy. This “reverse engineering,” the publishers claimed, violated copyright. Edsurge told its version of events for the past decade’s worth of ed-tech, and I told mine.
