1.What is OpenCourseWare

What is OpenCourseWare?
•MIT started in 2001 with two main objectives:•“Provide free, searchable, access to MIT's
course materials for educators, students, and self-learners around the world.“
•“Create an efficient, standards-based model that other institutions may emulate to openly share and publish their own course materials."

What is OCW?
An OpenCourseWare is a free and open digital publication of high quality educational materials, organized as courses for faculty, students, and self-learners throughout the world.
• An ocw is a collection of high-quality learning materials presented in the form of courses
• An ocw is not a distance-learning initiative: there are no degrees granted and in most cases no student/faculty interactions
• OCW materials are there for the taking and for transformation.

OCW part of the Open Movement
• OCW is only one type of Open
Educational Resource (OER).
• OERs are only one type of
Open Content.
• We have much to share
with each other.
