My viewpoints

Visible to anyone in the world
According to Veletsianos and Kimmons (2012), one of the assumptions of open scholarship is that "[it] is treated as an emergent scholarly phenomenon that is co-evolutionary with technological advancements in the larger culture". In my views, open scholarship varies in each context and culture. Example, in Pakistan, academia is not engaged in Open Educational Practices. Few of the reasons are traditional mindset to receive financial incentive against resource sharing, weak technological infrastructure, lack of digital literacy and awareness about the potentials of open scholarship.
