[Open-education] OER Schools conference: “practice changes and policy plays catch up“

[Marieke Guy]

Dear All,

Hope you had a good weekend.

Last week I attended the OER Schools Conference 
<http://www.digilitleic.com/?p=652>, which was organised to support a 
landmark decision by Leicester Council to give blanket permission to 
teachers in the Leicester area employed by the council to share their 
learning and teaching resources under an open licence. I've yet to hear 
of any other UK council's doing this and would be interested if anywhere 
else around the world is leading the way.

There is a write up of the day at:

I presented on open education and OER activity around the world, my 
slides are at:

Thanks

Marieke
