Beyond a “book”
“the thing that interests me most about where we are in the world of books is
imagining new and different kinds of models for book publishing. To build new
models, we need open platforms that allow people to experiment with new
ideas.”

THE PROBLEM: ACCESS
Non-traditional students & adjunct instructors are often poorly integrated with institutions due to their circumstances, and therefore:
Less likely to be reached by OER initiatives on their campusesHave limited access to peer communities
How can we use technology and the inherent shareability of OER to increase access to resources and peer communities?
THE SOLUTION: OPEN ASSEMBLY
Anytime, anywhere access to peer
communities and learning resources.
Open Learning Architecture for OER
THE SOLUTION: OPEN ASSEMBLY
Anytime, anywhere access to peer
communities and learning resources.
Open Learning Architecture for OER
Personal technology owned by the adjunct or student, course to course, year to year
Modularized OER collections optimized for micro-learning and ease of adaptation
Collaborative content curation enabling every user to become a producer/curator of OER
P2P learningfacilitating connection & interaction w/ peers, within courses or groups
Content Integration
API Integration
LMS Integration
THE SOLUTION: OPEN ASSEMBLY
• Plug-and-play in any LMS• Access all your learning resources in a single interface• Use analytics to personal the learning experience
