“Terrymc” on Blogging for Bioscience notes that there is a meeting regarding OER startups in the UK. No details about the meeting are provided, but attendees will be using the #oerstartup for tweets on Twitter. From the blog post:
My perception (so far) is that, for the academic community in general, OER appears to be seen as an eventual emergent property from various bits of courseware becoming visible. This is missing the point – OER needs to be stimulated by some excellent examples of production with the OER purpose in mind.
