The 16th annual Open Education Conference (OER25) will take place on Monday 23 and Tuesday 24 June 2025 in London at the Resource for London conference center. The OER25 Conference is a pinnacle event for the Association for Learning Technology, bringing together a dynamic community of educators, researchers, and practitioners.
As the narratives on artificial intelligence (AI) gather traction and populist movements dominate public debates, Open Education faces new challenges and opportunities:
-
How can we adapt Open Education Practices (OEP) and Open Educational Resources (OER) when AI makes content creation easier but less transparent? Are there appropriate uses of AI which could support open practices and practitioners?
-
Generative AI can produce unlimited educational material, but its reliance on existing content raises questions about originality, accuracy, and ethics. What legal and ethical issues arise from the undeclared use of open content by AI? How can open and Creative Commons licencing speak back to powerful and easy new norms of content creation with AI?
-
How can open learning and open knowledge remain a public good in a time of political and media polarisation? How can open practitioners support each other through these challenges?
-
“F you AI!”: How can Open Educational Practices and Resources provide critical, compassionate and equitable approaches to education that resist the dominant, populist AI narratives around transformation, increased productivity and personalisation of education?
This conference will explore these key questions and challenges participants to build the future of Open Education in a changing world.
Earlybird ends 12 May 2025.
