oer open-education

My paper at Ed-Media 2008. Abstract; In 2007, Delft University of Technology started Delft OCW (Open Courseware), a project with the objective of publishing educational resources online. This paper focuses on the future of this project, and describes the results of the research on its sustainability. The advice includes (i) the development of a more decentralized environment for Open Educational Resources (OER), (ii) the involvement of other OER projects, educational institutes, private organizations, and end-users, (iii) the management and support of this environment through tools and protocols, and (iv) deploying various business and revenue models to address the full potential of the project.

In producing this brief paper, we want to ask the questions:

* To what extent are we prepared, as a society and as educators, for the massive changes in human capabilities that digital technologies are likely to enable in the next 13 years?
* To what extent are our future visions for education based upon assumptions about humanity, society and technology that are no longer valid?
* To what extent can we, as educators, help to shape the developments of technology in order to enhance human development?
