Publish a blog post that describes your experience with open education. Is it just with the OU, or have you studied a MOOC, used open resources, or engaged with open access publications?

I feel I have limited experience of open education, but there are some things, like finding course/lesson materials, that have been very useful.

MOOCs: I have begun a couple MOOCs but never finished one. I think that is a pretty common phenomenon.

Open-access journals: I sometimes use open-access journals, especially ones with a teaching/practice orientation, to help inform pedagogical decisions and prepare lessons/materials.

OU: This is certainly where most of my learning experience with OER comes from.

Hi Michael, I've not come across the Open access journals (well I don't think I have), have you got a good example?
