A Recap of #OpenEd17 - SPARC

"Last week nearly 800 members of the Open Education community convened in Anaheim, California for the 14th Annual Open Education Conference (#OpenEd17). The three-day event was jam packed with programming that included four fantastic keynotes, over a hundred workshops and panel discussions, dozens of table discussions, and for the first time a half-day unconference. SPARC’s Open Education team was was well represented across the conference programming, holding speaking roles in eight sessions ranging in topics from state and federal policy to equity and OER. During the conference, SPARC was also active in informal conference programming which included a productive in-person meeting of the SPARC Open Education Leadership Fellows, as well as the production of a special video edition of the OER Digest featuring updates from 17 community institutions/organizations."
