Learning Analytics (whose data? open data?)

Open Access

Open Access is the principle that research should be accessible online, for free, immediately after publication.

PracticeThere are two roads to OA:

1. the "golden road" of OA journal-publishing , where journals provide OA to their articles (either by charging the author-institution for refereeing/publishing outgoing articles instead of charging the user-institution for accessing incoming articles, or by simply making their online edition free for all)

2. the "green road" of OA self-archiving, where authors provide OA to their own published articles, through institutional repositories, or by making their own articles free for all.

Open Access Journals

Promote creative and innovative activities, which will deliver social and economic benefits.

Make government more transparent and open in its activities, ensuring that the public are better informed about the work of the government and the public sector.

Enable more civic and democratic engagement through social enterprise and voluntary and community activities.
