OEGlobal is delighted to announce that the nominations are now open for the 2024 Open Education Awards for Excellence (OEAwards24).
Each year since 2011, the OEAwards have shone a spotlight on open education: its innovators and innovations, motivating practices, and outstanding achievements. As a transparent process led by the global open education community, the OEAwards have honoured 229 open education practitioners, projects, platforms, resources, and solutions. It continues to set the bar for education excellence, ensuring that Open solutions to education are seen as equal quality (or superior !) to their commercial counterparts.
As usual, this year’s 16 award categories are loosely grouped around four focus areas: People in Open, What We Share, How We Share, and the Specials Awards.
