This is a topic that I thoroughly enjoyed learning bout and reflecting on. the scenario that we were presented with, made me think creatively and objectively whilst providing an opportunity to reflect on what I was\/m struggling with when it comes to open education.<\/p>\n

I took quite a bit away from the webinar with Alistair and Kay and learnt that openness means to A LOT more than just ‘sharing information’ freely.<\/p>\n

I think that there is still a lot of power that will be unleashed when everyone starts adapting to open learning and open educational practices.<\/p>\n

MOOCs are increasingly being considered by universities as an integral part of their curriculum (Dalipi, Ferati and Kurti, 2018); and whilst I think that worldwide this is becoming a norm, South Africa is slowly starting to recognise the trend and worth in this – especially in light of the most recent political “fees must fall” matter. Several South African universities are adapting to OER and Open Access which I think is phenomenal. The few I have researched including UCT and UNISA are also providing ‘tool kits’ and ‘how to’ information guides for educators and students alike, on ways to share their OERs.<\/p>\n

As n educator myself, I would like to continue to explore the endless possibilities of openness, continue to learn bout ways to share and maximize potential and I would like to be able to implement and use the concept at my own institution.<\/p>\n

Onward and upward!<\/p>\n
