Open Learning: The Journal of Open and Distance Learning
The Open University’s peer reviewed Journal of Open and Distance Learning, Open Learning, has devoted its first issue of 2009 to the theme of Open Educational Resources (OER).The issue provides an introduction to the emerging OER movement and its implications for education systems and institutions, educators and learners. The articles describe a range of initiatives and issues, and articulate the vision of some of the most committed and passionate champions of Open Educational Resources. Together they communicate the energy and dynamism associated with this new movement, and its potential to extend learning opportunities worldwide.
‘We’re Going to the Moon:’ Part 2 | innovation3
This morning President Obama gave what I would call his ‘We’re-Going-to-the-Moon’ speech at the 146th Annual Meeting of National Academy of the Sciences. Earlier today I wrote a post, Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity for Our Children, on a comment by Secretary of Education Arnie Duncan about the need to challenge the educational status quo. After listening to President Obama’s speech, I realized it was a Part 2 to my earlier post so I retitled the post ‘We’re-Going-to-the-Moon:’ Part 1 and titled this post Part 2. Please listen to the entire speech and read the full text, but here I quote the President’s comments on STEM education.
