Chapter 6: Why Openness in Education?

This is a chapter from the book Game Changers, by David Wiley and Cable Green.

In this chapter, we explore a number of ways openness affects the practices of teaching and learning and the motivations behind supporters of these emergent practices. We discuss the three principal influences of openness on education: open educational resources, open access, and open teaching.
