Keynote presentation for Open Apereo 2015 describing the components of the Open Education Infrastructure. Connects Frischmann's work on intellectual infrastructure, Von Hippel's work on democratizing innovation, and Thierer's work on permissionless innovation to learning outcomes, activities and assessments, and other educational resources as the intellectual infrastructure of education necessary to facilitate innovation in education. Defines "open" and discusses the relationship between open and infrastructure.

- 13. “Intellectual infrastructure” is “nonrival input into a wide variety of outputs.” -- Brett Frischmann
- 14. Outcomes Activities Resources Intellectual Infrastructure of Ed
- 15. Outcomes Activities Resources Relatively expensive Very narrow permissions
- 16. Relatively Expensive Only those with significant capital can afford to experiment

- 30. Trouble with Costs and Permissions?
- 32. Which “open”?
- 33. open ≈ free
- 34. free is assumed online
- 35. open = free + permissions
- 36. Open 1. Free and unfettered access 2. Perpetual, irrevocable 5R permissions
- 37. • Make and own a copyRetain • Use in a wide range of waysReuse • Adapt, modify, and improveRevise • Combine two or moreRemix • Share with othersRedistribute The 5Rs
- 39. Own, Don’t Access “Access” is a war on ownership of private property If you can’t 5R it, you don’t own it

- 56. Why? How much difference can a textbook make?
- 57. Outcomes Six-year graduation rate for open access institutions 33% Avg. annual textbook cost per college student $1,200 Costs growing 3x inflation Cost students go without textbooks due to cost 6 in 10 take fewer courses due to textbook cost 35% Access of community college students achieve credential goals <50% A Problem
- 58. OutcomesCost Access A Solution Six-year graduation rate for open access institutions ?% Avg. annual textbook cost per college student < $50 Costs going to $0 students go without textbooks due to cost 0 in 10 take fewer courses due to textbook cost 0% of community college students achieve credential goals ?%
- 61. Open Outcomes Open Activities Open Educational Resources Downstream Productive Activities Open Pedagogy Open Business Models Open Credentialing Models
- 62. Open Pedagogy The set of things you can do when outcomes, assessments, and resources are open that you cannot do otherwise.
- 66. Openness Facilitates the Unexpected Creates benefits for society through the facilitation of unexpected downstream productive activities
- 67. Disposable Assignments Students hate doing them You hate grading them Huge waste of time and energy
- 68. Renewable Assignments Students see value in doing them You see value in grading them The world is a better place at the end
- 70. PM4ID
- 71. PM4ID
- 72. Renewable Assignments Are enabled by the open nature of activities and resources
- 73. REPLACE REALIGN RETHINK • Adopt an open textbook – wholesale – in place of a commercial textbook • Everything else stays the same - Significant cost savings for students - Little or no change in student success • Start from learning outcomes • Aggregate best OER for each outcome • Personalize content for your students - Significant cost savings for students - Modest change in student success • REALIGN • Explore open pedagogy • Redesign assessment strategy - Significant cost savings for students - Moderate to significant change in student success The Remix Hypothesis
- 74. Open Credential The kinds of credentials you can award when outcomes, assessments, resources, and pedagogy are open that you cannot do otherwise.
- 75. The Z-Degree REMOVING TEXTBOOK COSTS AS A BARRIER TO STUDENT SUCCESS THROUGH AN OER-BASED CURRICULUM Decreased cost to graduate by 25% Increased pedagogical flexibility Improved course completion rates
- 77. Open Outcomes Open Activities Open Educational Resources Where’s the Tech? Open Pedagogy Open Business Models Open Credentialing Models Open Technical Infrastructure
- 78. Open Ed Tech Infrastructure? 1. Should democratize innovation in education 2. Should permit innovation in education
- 79. Open Ed Tech Infrastructure 1. Democratizes innovation (Free? Easy to use?) 2. Permits innovation (OSI license? Interoperability? Campus policies? Pedagogical assumptions?)
- 80. Get Out of the Way We should be making “resources that create benefits for society primarily through the facilitation of downstream productive activities.”
- 81. Alignment and Synergy Open education infrastructure and Open educational tech infrastructure are setting the stage for terrific things
