Building on Thomas Friedman's book, The World is Flat, Curt Bonk offers an intriguing look at ten technology trends which he calls educational openers. This model helps make sense of the role of various technologies in open education, including open courseware, open source software, open access journals, open educational resources, and open information communities. With new technologies, thousands of organizations and scholars are sharing their course materials, expertise, and teaching ideas globally, thereby expanding learning opportunities and resources even further. Bonk also addresses questions related to the quality of new online media content, the digital divide, and how those without Internet access still benefit immensely from these open learning tools and resources.
