MOOCs -- This term began with George Siemens' connectivist experiment of an online course in (2011?). The idea of a MOOC had come about through discussion with Stephen Downes and ------ (other people) in order to model open education. The term was then applied to the Artificial Intelligence course offered by Stanford University in (2011?) even though aspects of the Stanford course were not quite open. (? checking this one). Over the next 2 years many courses sprang up which were termed MOOCs, but which were usually not Open, nor Massive, but were simply online courses. In the Association for Learning Technology Conference 2013, Stephen Downes in an invited keynote talk, encouraged a return to the open education ideals, as a need to be filled in the current economic, social, and educational climate.

On the class talk page Pete suggests checking further into outline-type articles. WP:WikiProject_Outlines provides an overview, and WP:OUTLINE provides more on developing an outline article. Also the wikimindmap tool generates a mindmap for this article. -- Litjade ( talk) 19:56, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
After digesting a little more of the WP:OUTLINE essay, I'm now thinking that the article name should be "Outline of openness in education" to best capture the topmost or parent concept in the hierarchy of OER-related topics we're attempting to construct. The renaming might also help avoid or, at least, identify circularity in using "open education" to define everything else while conveying or, at least, suggesting that dimensions of "open" range across OER-related topics. — Litjade ( talk) 14:31, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
P.S. If we reach consensus on the title "Outline of openness in education," we might need to create a further entry in the disambiguation of Open to distinguish from the now stub-class Openness article. — Litjade ( talk) 15:38, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
In WP:Outline I saw this {{subst:Outline generator|topic uncapitalized|topic capitalized}} but have no clue how or if it's appropriate to apply here. — Litjade ( talk) 15:37, 6 April 2014 (UTC)
As we build the outline structure, I thought it best to move the more descriptive text from the outline here (until we find better placements). — Litjade ( talk) 17:52, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

Wondering whether a new section in this outline article would/could map out terms used in the various scholarly debates about "how open is open". I think it might help show that the topics of open education and open educational resources are constantly evolving. Litjade ( talk) 13:15, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
" Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation. The Transhumanist 00:08, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
