Open Education Conference 2012 — October 16-18, Vancouver BC

“... Come join us as the Open Education 2012 Conference celebrates these successes... For over a decade the focus of the open education community has been on open educational resources. As we celebrate the success of that work the Open Education 2012 Conference will also lay out a road map for the next decade where open education moves beyond content. Join us in showcasing projects building the new generation of open education innovations... open policy, open assessment, open support, open teaching, and open business models, a small but growing number of successful initiatives exist. Open Education 2012 is your opportunity to learn from this work and help the field expand systematically into each of these areas of the learning ecosystem. As open education expands out we’ve come to see our work as part of a broader context of openness – open data, open access, open government, open source, to name a few. At Open Education 2012 we’re looking to connect our thinking and build synergies with these parallel movements. OpenEd12, the ninth annual Open Education Conference, will frame the conversation about the future of open education. Come be part of the discussion – we need your energy, brains, passion, and dedication! Join us for the “annual reunion of the open education family,” spanning three stimulating days in Vancouver, BC, October 16-18.”
