National Education Summit’s Post

Change and leadership in action. Watch this space for a way forward to tackle racism.

Open education has made remarkable progress, yet the evolving landscape continues to present challenges. As #OpenEducation work continues to grow at institutions, in states, and across regions, questions increasingly surface about how we might coordinate and advocate more effectively as a field. This includes how to advance open education policies at the national and state level, how to reach institutional leaders, and how to expand sustainable funding. NCOER (a collaboration among the four regional education compacts), working together with Driving OER Sustainability for Student Success (DOERS3) and SPARC, invite members of the open education field to join us for an open conversation about the potential need for U.S. national open education strategy and discuss how we might better collaborate to advance shared priorities. This will build on a discussion started at the 2023 Open Education Conference. All who are interested in open education are encouraged to participate.

I currently have the opportunity to get an inside view of higher education in a developing country and it just proves to me every day how important our calling is in educating and improving our world. While we could do more with more, here in the US we have a wealth of resources available to us in support of higher education that simply don't exist elsewhere. Let's make sure we make the best possible use of those resources. Developing countries do not have the same resources yet have the commitment and the vision to pursue greatness. Higher education shares that bond across the globe. My takeaways from the perspective of higher education IT: sometimes we need to refocus on our mission, get back to basics, simplify, and provide the best and easiest experience we can for our students, our faculty, our staff and all of our constituents.
