This week I was invited to Tallinn, Estonia, speak at the
annual conference of
HITSA (Information Technology Foundation for Education), a national organization for the development of educational technology: initiating, coordinating and facilitating activities and developments in the field of ICT-supported learning in Estonian higher and vocational education. It was held in the impressive
Mektory innovation centre of the Tallinn University of Technology and attracted over 200 delegates from schools and universities. My contribution consisted of a keynote speech on the future of MOOCs (
MOOCs – from hype to opportunity) and an overview of the development of OER in the Nordic region (
Nordic OER) focusing on three projects I am involved in:
NordicOER,
OER Sverige and
LangOER. Here is a short summary of my impressions from two intensive days.
