I’m loving this blog post about the recent OER16 Conference at Edinburgh on the ALT Site by the fabulous Frances Bell. I think it really captures the spirit of the Open Community and the friendly and warm welcome that I have been fortunate to receive since I have been involved. OER Friends …. love it …
I’ve really enjoyed working on the organisation for this year’s OER Conference. Along with my fellow OER16 committee members I think we have arranged a pretty special conference. Its so rewarding being in a team of people drawn from all across the spectrum of open education who give their time freely and willingly for the common good. I’ve found the open education community to be so friendly and supportive and I just love it. I’m really excited to hear our keynote and invited speakers .. Jim Groom, Reclaim Hosting Catherine Cronin, National University of Ireland, Galway Emma Smith, University of Oxford John Scally, National Library for Scotland Melissa Highton, University of Edinburgh and also there are so many parallel sessions that I am looking forward to that it is going to be a really, really hard choice to pick ! So if you are also heading to Edinburgh today for the… #OER16 Conference … …
I’m delighted to be involved with the planning committee for the OER16 Conference next year with the the theme of Open Culture . I hope to be able to contribute following my experience of OER15 this year .The lovely Lorna Campbell has just written the following blog post with all the info. It looks like this going to be a good one that you will not want to miss !
