This is just too good to miss! David Wiley from Utah State University has a new course this Fall entitled “Introduction to Open Education.” The full syllabus is online, anyone can enroll and you can get credits.
A lot of people talk about open educational resources but this is one of the first examples where we can see a real, effective and exciting implementation.
It will be really, really interesting to see how this course develops over the coming months, to get feedback from the participants and to see how well the students perform. This could really be the shape of things to come.
We are very lucky here at the UNU in that David will be giving a keynote here later this month at a UNU-UNESCO Conference.
Sorry, the picture comes from David’s blog. Hope he doesn’t mind.
