This document discusses open educational resources (OER) and practices. It notes that while OER initiatives are growing internationally, they remain less widespread in Sweden. The document explores concepts like ubiquitous learning and learning spaces. It outlines workshops and seminars held to promote OER and discusses ongoing and future efforts at Lund University to increase OER use and open practices through initiatives like iTunesU, YouTube channels, and open access publishing. The goal is to move toward more sharing, collaboration, and open educational cultures.

4. Kanwar, Balasubramanian and Umar (2010)
defines OER as:
The phenomenon of OER is an
empowerment process,
facilitated by technology in which
various types of stakeholders
are able to interact, collaborate, create and use
materials and pedagogic practices,
that are freely available, for enhancing access,
reducing costs and improving the quality
of education and learning at all levels.

problems we don’t even know are problems
yet.”

20. Learning Design has a
dual impact on OER
• learning designs provide good
practice models for stitching
together OERs
• learning designs spell out how an
OER is an exemplar of good
practice
• learning designs as OERs
themselves?

21. Open educational practices
and cultures
• Sharing as default
• National policies
meet grassroots
enthusiasm
• Cource design
• Re-thinking
education
• Assessment
