Hi Ishan, Thanks for sharing. The OER Asia workshop materials provides a powerful example of the value and potential of reuse and remix in open education.
For example: 1. David Wiley and his team created an online remix game<http://opencontent.org/game/betagame.html> . 2. Inspired by this learning resource I checked with David that it was openly licensed and recreated a wiki version<http://wikieducator.org/Creative_Commons_unplugged/Remix_game>for the Open Content Licensing for Educators Course<http://wikieducator.org/Open_content_licensing_for_educators/Home>because we needed an editable version using open file formats. 3. OER Asia has reused and remixed this resource for use in your OER workshop <http://www.oerasia.org/resource-links/remix-game>. We have already provided free training to approximately 2000 educators using these materials, I'm sure that Davids online game has attracted a large number of hits and the resource has been put to good use in the OER Asia workshop materials. Nice one!
