people set up between

refreshing. There are lots
of tools, and you don't
know which one would
work. It's about being
optimistic and trying to
connect things.”

not just about cost savings and easy access to openly licensed

“To meet the education challenges,
we can’t use the traditional way. In
remote and developing areas,
particularly for girls and women,
OER are a crucial, crucial means to
reach SDGs. OER are the key.”

44. 1. A lack of user-friendliness in the editing
interface.
2. Not having enough free time.
3. A lack of self-confidence.
4. Aversion to conflict and an unwillingness
to participate in lengthy edit wars.
5. Belief that their contributions are too
likely to be reverted or deleted.
6. Some find its overall
atmosphere misogynistic.
7. Wikipedia culture is sexual in ways they
find off-putting.
8. Being addressed as male is off-putting to
women whose primary language has
grammatical gender.
9. Fewer opportunities than other sites for
social relationships and a welcoming tone.

49. Those with access to these
resources — students, librarians,
scientists — you have been given
a privilege. You get to feed at this
banquet of knowledge while the
rest of the world is locked out.
But you need not — indeed,
morally, you cannot — keep this
privilege for yourselves. You have
a duty to share it with the world.

57. “Of my experience spending three
years in jail so far for writing open
source code (mainly) I can tell how
much authoritarian regimes feel the
danger of technology on their
continuity, and they should be afraid
of that. As code is much more than
tools, it’s education that opens youth
minds and moves the nations forward.
Who can stop that? No one…. As long
as you people are out doing what you
are doing, my soul is free. Jail is only a
temporary physical limitation.”

This is one description of the open education movement that I particularly like from OER Commons…
At the recent OER World Congress, Creative Commons CEO Ryan Merkley emphasized that free is not the most important thing about OER, it’s the permission to modify and adapt resources that is most important.
