Open learning allows learners more control over their learning process by delivering opportunities when and how they need them. The document highlights examples of open universities and open courseware consortiums that are removing barriers to education. It also discusses how web-based technologies and Web 2.0 tools can support open and collaborative learning models, and provides examples of how these tools have been used. The focus is on creating lifelong learning communities and designing open learning experiences and portfolios using available digital tools.
