hey cornelia , you are raising a very important issue and also something from my background ( i am based in china now ) we need to get more voices from other culutural background , especially if you are in the future to "sell"the OER university product or honestly i think technology is not a issue , however we need to think abt our students and teachers and parents .
and i also strongly agree that we should not trying to resell the OCW or any other open courses , or even translating it into other languages , i think the most important thing is to find out the 1 product 2 who is going to be our customer and shareholder ? 3 what is the marketing tool or method i am more interested in developing oer university in a bussiness model way :) am i too greedy ? 2011/2/10 <[email protected]> > Hi Colleagues, > > I think this 'OER university’ is 'a great leap forward' in the process of > massfication of higher education.
