MOOC history
6. The range of “opens”, from e-InfraNet: ‘Open’ as the default modus operandi for research and higher education, CC-BY-SA 3.0
7. Openness in MOOC?
➢ Open access
➢ Open process
➢ Open educational resources
➢ Open licenses
➢ Open standards
➢ Open source software
➢ Open pedagogy
21. Open educational resources
(OER)
digitised materials
offered freely and openly
for educators, students and self-learners
to use and reuse
for teaching, learning and research
22. Believing that OER can
widen access to quality education,
particularly when shared by many countries
and higher education institutions,
UNESCO champions OER
as a means of promoting access, equity and quality
in the spirit of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
23. Good teachers know how
to create learning materials
Great teachers know how
to mix and reuse

53. Use cases designed for?
➢ OpenID
➢ Federated authentication
➢ Login at site B with your credentials from site A (identity
provider) without giving B your password.
➢ E.g. login at edX by verifying at Google.
➢ Oauth
➢ Delegated authorization
➢ Authorize app/site B to access your data at site A without
giving B your password.
➢ E.g. allow mobile edX app access to your edX server data
54. In practice,
also by Open edX, ...
➢ OAuth is often abused for pseudo-authentication
➢ Possible
➢ But requires custom code for each authorization provider.
➢ Well known for the famous ones like Google and Facebook
➢ Provided by Open edX
55. Here is the Here you

Who are YOU? Send me a
notarized referral letter.
Give me the valet key* to
your house (account) so
that I know you are the
owner of the house
Please issue me a
valet key* for the core APIs

Please write a referral
stating that I'm user@gmail

56. OpenID = user-centric :)
➢ Dream: login everywhere with your preferred identity
provider or with your own URL
➢ e.g. login by writing “http://questier.com“
➢ = my server that runs openid identity server
➢ or that has rel-link to http://questier.myopenid.com
57. The user-centric dream killed :(
➢ 2014 MyOpenID shuts down
➢ Facebook OpenID connect → Facebook Connect
➢ 2018 Stackexchange OpenID support shuts down

60. Recommendation 1
Check which of these Open edX solutions
fit your institutional identity provider
➢ Supported Identity Providers
➢ OAuth2, OAuth1
➢ Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, Microsoft Azure AD (365),…
➢ SAML 2 / Shibboleth
➢ Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI)
➢ Provisionally Supported Identity Providers
➢ OpenID
➢ Apache-hosted Shibboleth
➢ SSL client certificates
➢ Central Authentication Service (CAS)
61. Recommendation 2
If you don’t have yet
an identity provider
➢ consider this Free Open Source software:
➢ Shibboleth
➢ SAML2
➢ Apereo CAS
➢ SAML1/2, CAS1/2/3, Oauth, OpenID /Connect, LDAP,
Radius, ...
