	abstract = {Building on open educational resources (OER), open educational practices seek to fully use the potential inherent in OER to support learning and to help students both contribute to knowledge and construct their own learning pathways. Such open practices provide the architecture and philosophical underpinning for fulfilling the promise of using OER to expand collaborative, inclusive, accessible, and active learning and related pedagogy. Open educational practices also give agency to students by giving them more control over the structure, content, and outcomes of their learning and by creating opportunities for them to create learning materials.

This publication is one in a three-part series designed to provide a point of departure for conversations about all aspects of open education.

Use these briefs for a no-jargon, quick overview of a topic and share them with time-pressed colleagues.},
