New Resource: Open Education Getting Started Guide
This guide provides a starting point for anyone interested in open education to connect with useful tools, resources, and communities.
One of the clearest takeaways from our National Needs Assessment Survey was that the open education field offers a wide range of rich resources and support for open education work. This abundance can at times make it difficult for practitioners to know what resources and communities are available to guide and support this work. Since launching our first set of resources, one of the most frequent requests we’ve received from the community is to create a “starter guide” that links out to some of the top resources that support open education work.
Open Education: Getting Started Guide provides a list of top resources in each of the nine key categories of open education identified by our national survey. While it only represents the tip of the iceberg for all of the amazing activities available throughout the open education field, we hope it provides a useful starting point for engagement. The guide is meant to be a living document that will be kept up to date to reflect new resources as they are published.
If you would like to share the resources you find the most useful in your open education work please share them by emailing us at contact@opened.org. Have ideas for other resources that would support your work? Let us know through our suggestion box.
New Resource: Open Education Opportunity Board

The open education field is brimming with opportunities to connect, contribute, and grow. To round out our collection of resources to help you stay up to date, we are pleased to introduce the Open Education Opportunity Board.

New Resource: Open Education Conference List
For one of our very first resources, we’ve created a list of annual events with a primary focus on open education. Stay tuned for more resources that help you find, learn and share information about open education.
As the Open Education Association Development Project (opened.org) gets underway, we’re starting to lay the groundwork for shared resources that support the field. While we await the results of our national needs assessment survey, one message has already come through loud and clear: people are looking for central places to find and share information.
For one of our very first resources, we’ve curated a list of annual events with a primary focus on open education. The database is built in Airtable, so the data can be easily filtered, sorted and downloaded for use in your local context.
