Dear colleagues,

Two articles were published today that I think will be of interest to you. The first appeared in University Affairs, and includes excerpts of interviews with Farhad and myself, along with several other leading open education advocates and practitioners across the country, including Gill Green, Amanda Coolidge, David Porter, and Paul Stacey: http://www.universityaffairs.ca/features/feature-article/open-educational-resources-movement-redefining-concept-online-textbooks/

 

And the second follows my recent trip to the University of Kansas and talks about the social movement that is behind open education: http://cteblog.ku.edu/turning-open-education-into-a-social-movement/

 

Cheers,

Rajiv
