“Nearly one-third of the world’s population (29.3%) is under 15. Today there are 158 million people enrolled in tertiary education1. Projections suggest that that participation will peak at 263 million2 in 2025. Accommodating the additional 105 million students would require more than four major universities (30,000 students) to open every week for the next fifteen years.

When the Marginal Cost of Sharing is $0…

- educators have an ethical obligation to share

- governments need to get maximum ROI by requiring publicly funded resources be openly licensed resources
