UNED Abierta (OER Programme)
• Created in 2012 in the Vice-rectorate for Continuing Education
and Lifelong Learning
• Intends to make visible all the OERs produced at UNED and
promote their creation and use
• Management of UNED MOOCs, OpenCourseWare, iTunes U and
access to other open resources at UNED
• UNED Abierta is based on openness, equity and quality
education for all
• Open and distance education universities’ social mission of
facilitating access to higher education to everyone can be better
fulfilled if OERS are a core

UNED MOOCs
• x-MOOCs
• Cognitive-behaviorist pedagogy
• Rely primarily on information transmission (videos), computer
marked assignments and peer assessment
• Each course differs: some are content focused (have more
videos), some are social focused (interaction through debates,
social networks), …
• Professors main motivation: explore and experiment diverse
pedagogical models
• Run in our own platform
• Different certification options

UNED Abierta: results
• Great expectation:

internal demand

unemployed (no full-time students), Spanish, 25-35 years,
not previous students at UNED
• Completion rates (mean):
• 70% start the course
• 20% of those complete the course
• 20% of those get credential/certificate

UNED Abierta: lessons learned
• Quality control, beyond quantity (focus in the first stages)
• Need for institutional reflection about the role of “open”
• Integration into mainstream processes is not fully
addressed
• Access to educational content should be available
(MOOCs are not, so the videos are in UNED channel in
YouTube)
• Information about students profiles, learning process
they follow and opinion about MOOCs are needed

UNED Abierta: future steps
• Integration: new MOOCs related to
• continuing education programs (masters)
• courses 101, cross-curricular competences
• research projects
• Courses with a special innovative approach either in
methodology, pedagogical design, social learning, etc.
• Credit recognition in UNED study programs
• Promotion of OERs at UNED regular programs: creation,
use, adaptation
• Collaboration with researchers at UNED and other
institutions
