“creating, communicating, preserving and applying knowledge” for teaching, learning, and research: By unbundling educational content so that it is portable: ▪ across structures (e.g. courses, tutorials), ▪ across mediums (e.g. print-‐on-‐demand or digital texts), ▪ across devices (e.g. desktop vs mobile), ▪ across types of computer networks (online, offline, hybrid) ▪ across audiences and markets
through transparent, reproducible, and adaptable processes that can be adapted by others across and beyond the institution
