Announcing our first keynote speaker for #OER17 … Maha Bali (@bali_maha)
To help those undecided about submitting a proposal for #OER17: The Politics of Open (submissions are open until the 16th November), we are delighted to announce that Maha Bali will be one of our keynote speakers . Maha has been a prolific contributor to open and connected education, exploring innovative ways to help people learn whilst also learning herself. It is perhaps not surprising that Maha is also keen to take this approach with her #OER17 keynote which will not only be interactive but you can follow and contribute to it via Maha’s blog ‘Reflecting Allowed’.
