Openlearn. A conference in October 2007 at the Open University.

The OU is holding a conference in Milton Keynes on 30 and 31 October 2007: Openlearn - researching open content in education:

"The ways in which people can learn are changing with new opportunities to learn at a distance, to learn as part of global community and to learn using new technologies. Open and free educational resources are an important component in this expanded world of learning and major initiatives are now underway to provide such resources."

"This conference recognises the research challenge alongside the business challenge of providing, using and sustaining free and open resources and invites contributions and participation from those who are interested in how to research open content and what the findings are from those working in this challenging area."
