20. “Five years from now, we will still be talking
about OER -- but not in the way you might think.
My prediction is that 2019 is the year when the
national conversation about OER shifts from
being solely about saving money to leveraging
openness to make course materials better. OER
has the power to unlock new ways for faculty to
exercise academic freedom in the classroom, for
students to meaningfully engage with their
materials and for institutions to promote the
success of all students.”
