The Dream

That everyone have access to high quality, affordable, accessible learning opportunities.

It will require we share the educational resources we produce and that we spend our limited public resources wisely.

Page 5: !2012 OER Talk

“Nearly one-third of the world’s population (29.3%) is under 15. Today there are 158 million people enrolled in tertiary education1. Projections suggest that that participation will peak at 263 million2 in 2025. Accommodating the additional 105 million students would require more than four major universities (30,000 students) to open every week for the next fifteen years.

Initial Impact

In the first year, students will save

$1.1 million in textbook costs

That’s more than we spent to develop the courses… in year 1.

Physical Expression are good too

At one medium sized Washington college in the 2010-11 year students saved:• "Math in a Sustainable Society" Pete Kaslik -

$7920 savings/year• "Math in Society" David Lippman - $17K

savings/year• "Mathematics for Teachers of Young Children"

Sharon Camner $2520 savings/year• "Precalculus: an investigation of functions"

David Lippman and Melonie Rasmussen - $28K-$99K savings/year

Page 62: !2012 OER Talk

Conclusion1. Digital + Open: Implement policies

and solutions to encourage content that is both digital AND open (meaning free, shareable, adaptable, and editable)

2. Lifelong Learning: Allow course content to be persistent and discoverable with tools such as openly shared courses in Canvas (so students can preview lessons before they are officially enrolled and review them after).
