Summary:
From Google's English:
"Open education is a collective term for educational organizations that seek to eliminate barriers to entry. For example, such institutions have no academic admission requirements. Examples are the Open University in the UK and the Athabasca University in Canada. Such programs are usually distance learning programs such as e-learning, MOOC or OpenCourseWare. Although many e-learning programs are free, the cost of obtaining a certificate can be an obstacle. Many open educational institutions offer free certification systems that are accredited by organizations such as UKAS in the United Kingdom and Anab in the US, where others, such as the Khan Academy, offer a badge."
