Open EdTech Association
Our Purpose
We support the Open EdTech movement globally
Research
We conduct and share our research around open education technologies to inform the community and our other activities.
Standards
We curate and define open standards that we believe our members should support in their products and projects.
Advocacy
We promote our values, concepts and designs globally in order to counter proprietary narratives around Education Technologies.
Funding
We work with public funding bodies such as the EU in order to help direct funds towards our members participating in Open EdTech development projects.
Our Principles
Decided in our first meeting in Barcelona, November 2019.
Education is a basic human right and Open EdTech can best enable equitable access to quality education for everyone on Earth.
We strongly support open standards and interoperability.
Control of education technology should be collectively shared.
We want to empower educators and learners to improve our world.
Education should drive education technology, not the reverse.
We encourage strategic alliances and networks for those around Open EdTech.
Open EdTech should be the most well-designed, competitive and sustainable technology available.
We embrace the best of open source practices.
We want to build on what already exists, including standards and tools.
Openness in EdTech should include transparency about sustainability models.
We work closely with our diverse communities to define our goals and roadmaps.
We understand and respect diversity when creating and recommending Open EdTech tools and resources.
