Open Education
Open Education refers to a movement aimed at making educational resources accessible to everyone, regardless of their location or financial situation. This includes free online courses, textbooks, and learning materials that can be used and shared by anyone. The goal is to promote inclusive learning opportunities and reduce barriers to education.
Key components of Open Education include Open Educational Resources (OER), which are teaching and learning materials that are freely available for use, and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), which allow large numbers of students to participate in courses online. This approach encourages collaboration and innovation in education.
