The Open Education Conference has been described as “the annual reunion of the open education family.” Each year the conference
serves as the world’s premiere venue for research related to open education, while simultaneously creating the most friendly
and energetic atmosphere you’ll find at any academic conference.
The seventh annual Open Education Conference moves to Barcelona for its first convening outside of North America!
The conference theme for 2010 is OER: Impact and Sustainability.
