One of the most useful examples I saw this year was at a Moodle conference where in the digital conference guide was a QR next to each session. This idea of access to education is only going to grow, I believe, into something pretty amazing. BYOD can help. Look at my district. 57,000 students. For me, the device doesn''t matter.

By plugging into previously installed systems, Edsby uses single-sign-on functionality to simplify access. The net effect is making teachers’ lives easier, so they can spend less time finding and maintaining ad-hoc applications like Edmodo and Moodle, and more time engaging with students. How does it help teachers?

I think such courses aren’t open in the sense that they limit access based on the ability to pay. Still such courses can offer considerably wider access to higher education than the traditional model. Canvas and Moodle will continue to make inroads. Whether this satisfies the open part of the MOOC acronym is debatable.
