EODLW2020: Open Education Technologies for online education

In the last months the world of education has seen its major changes from decades. By remote learning and teaching, moving education from in-campus to online, hybrid education, all educational institutions have relied on educational technologies. The education actively responded to these changes by including more and more open education principles, quite often using diverse technologies to achieve so. There exists a rich ecosystem of open educational technologies (OET) created by educational, open source, and commercial organizations around the world. Open Educational Technologies (Open EdTech) is a diverse group of organisations, open source projects, and individuals advocating for the use of open technologies, content, and standards in education. They are guided by the 12 principles as listed in the Barcelona Blueprint 2019 and they constantly plan to thrive the learning ecosystems. This workshop intends to discuss its guiding principles but also to present some recent developments with technologies in innovative education. Moodle, MoodleNet, H5P, BigBlueButton and RaspberryPi are among the most used open source solutions, and the future plans for development will be presented. Participants will have the chance to interact directly, ask questions and give feedback to the major ‘brains’ behind them.
