Aline,

Couldn't agree more. The chasm we need to cross in OER is moving from *sharing
to LEARN --> learning to SHARE*.

The value proposition for open education increases by an order of magnitude
when organisations collaborate through sharing. It's not rocket science --
if 10 institutions works together in assembling high quality courses from
OER -- its cheaper than doing it alone :-).

Let the remix begin!
