Hi everyone, As we start preparing for the holidays, Tony Bates cites the OER university as the most noticeable development in OER for 2011.
See: http://www.tonybates.ca/2011/12/13/e-learning-in-2011-a-retrospective/ Tony's scholarship in open distance learning and technology mediated learning has informed much of my own thinking in this field over the last two decades. Tony, therefore, you can claim some responsibility for informing the foundations on which our founding anchor partners<http://wikieducator.org/OER_university/2011.11_Founding_OERTen_anchor_partner_statements>are building the OER university ;-). Earlier this year I intimated that 2011 would be a quantum shift year for seeding the mainstream adoption of OER in the formal education sector. The OERu is the vehicle enabling us to facilitate this transformation. I wonder what 2012 will promise for open education and the OERu? Any thoughts?
