We have all used the buzzwords, skimmed articles, and attended conferences and presentations with the intention of doing better. OER enables the most up-to-date information to be produced and allows students to discuss old concepts with the new. But inequities still exist. These are just a few of the benefits of OER.

In June of 2017, Jonkoping, Sweden, was the latest European city to host the annual summer gathering and once again, I managed to record some in depth conversations with several of the conference plenary speakers, including this one with Stefan Hrastinski. At the conference his key theme was one to one online learning.

We didn''t want to stick to the run-of-the-mill conference presentation format, so we opted for a kind of ''staged disagreement'' instead. Any comments are very welcome.
