Stephen Downes Webinar for Curt Bonk’s Indiana University Class

Downes-webcast

Just finished watching/listening/participating in a Webinar with Stephen Downes for Curt Bonk’s class at Indiana University.  I’ve been a fan of Downes for a number of years, primarily through his blog, so I was happy to see that he was talking to Curt’s class and that Curt opened it up to the public (through the departmental listserv).

The talk was generally on Open Educational Resources (OERs), but with a particular focus on equity though openness in terms of access, economics, and corporate subversion.

Not too much new for anyone who follows his blog, OLDaily (http://www.downes.ca/news/OLDaily.htm), but it was good to catch him “live”.
