Timothy Vollmer has a new post interviewing Karen Fasimpaur. Fasimpaur has been active in handheld learning and K-12 open education. From the interview:
The most important thing about OER is not that it saves money in the short term, but that it is beneficial to learning by allowing more customization and differentiation. Ultimately, that will also save money by allowing schools to spend funds on the content and services that best serve their students and by improving student engagement and achievement.
