 “creating, communicating, preserving and applying knowledge” for teaching, learning, and research:  By unbundling educational content so that it is portable: ▪ across structures (e.g. courses, tutorials), ▪ across mediums (e.g. print-on-demand or digital texts), ▪ across devices (e.g. desktop vs mobile), ▪ across types of computer networks (online, offline, hybrid) ▪ across audiences and markets  through transparent, reproducible, and adaptable processes that can be adapted by others across and beyond the institution 11

1.Umbrella initiative to bridge various open- related initiatives across campus 2.Sharing content, tools, and processes – with open licenses and common formats 3.Hybrid models of content that is free with optional additional services at a fee 12

1.Support from leadership within the medical school 2.Transitions of services to other units on campus (mixed success) 3.Embedding into existing eLearning production (e.g. Coursera) 4.Tracking of metrics across hosting platforms 13

 Ability to adapt to local contexts (e.g. culture, language)  Low-cost materials  Ability to circulate offline 15

 Crowdsourcing translation of videos  Using and adapting of learning resources between and within regions  Distribution of learning materials through local (wireless) area networks 16

 Regional network as a method of scaling  Offline usage can be difficult to track  Differing practices and policies around informed consent (for recording) 17

(companion worksheet Session 5: 20
