Open Education 2016

The goal is changing. The approach is changing. The infrastructure is changing. Our materials are not keeping pace. Why should our children learn in an entirely different environment when preparing for the professional world? Openly licensed educational resources have become more prevalent in school districts in the past year. With support from the US Department of Education, state leaders, and new platforms for curation and discovery, there has never been a more exciting time to begin innovating classroom instruction. Participants will learn how to begin making the transition to openly licesned educational resources in your school district and hear about examples across the country where this transition is taking place.
