Abstract

An international panel of experts in OER will provide their views on the state of the art in OER creation and deployment. This will include reports on OER activities on four continents and regions and on the development in the assessment and accreditation of learners who study informally using OER and other resources available on the Internet. The impact of OER on development will also be considered from Asian and African perspectives. The relationship between OER and increased accessibility to the internet using mobile devices will be explored. Panelists are being recruited and will be announced when confirmed. // Paper ID: 232
