Open Source/Open Education Projects That Changed Education

OEDB has a new post on how open source and open education have changed higher education. The projects listed were some of the obvious ones such as Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg and Firefox. From the post:

MIT provides just one of the 10 open source educational success stories detailed below. Open source and open access resources have changed how colleges, organizations, instructors, and prospective students use software, operating systems and online documents for educational purposes. And, in most cases, each success story also has served as a springboard to create more open source projects.
