Last week, I introduced the COUP framework, which is a great framework to start with OER research. However, some categories of the COUP framework have been researched more extensively than others. For example, one of the biggest “selling points” of OER is cost. But is a free resource always the better option if students don’t achieve good grades in the end?

On the 19th Feb I gave my inaugural lecture (rather belatedly, having become a Prof about 15 years ago), as part of the Open University’s 50th anniversary celebrations. Given the delay it was something of a mix between an inaugural and a valedictory, as I chose to trace the changing nature of open education through the personal narrative of my own involvement in projects at the OU. My pitch was that up until the 90s, ‘open education’ roughly equated to the open university model – there were some variations, but it was largely focused on access to higher education. The advent of the internet, and wide spread popularity of the web, both deliberately ‘open’ systems, changed this.
