The OpenCourseWare Consortium

By Vasudev Ram


I got to know about the OpenCourseWare Consortium via visiting the Saylor Foundation site again while writing my blog post of today about the Saylor Foundation's $20,000 Open Textbook Challenge.

(The Saylor Foundation seems to be a member of the OpenCourseWare Consortium.)

The OpenCourseWare Consortium (OCWC) "is a collaboration of higher education institutions and associated organizations from around the world creating a broad and deep body of open educational content using a shared model."

Links about them:

More about the OCWC.

OCWC Board of Directors.

OCWC Staff.

What is OpenCourseWare?

I guess it all started with the OpenCourseWare initiative of MIT.
