Entrepreneurship as Change Agent in Asia: An “Open” Perspective James Dalziel Professor of Learning Technology and Director, Macquarie E-Learning Centre Of Excellence (MELCOE) Macquarie University Presentation for the Roundtable on Entrepreneurship Education, Macquarie University, Sydney, 18 th June, 2008

Overview The Rise of Open Open & Business Open in Asia Open Education Open Education in Asia Future Directions

The Rise of “Open” Open Standards Open Source Software/Free Software Open Content (eg, Creative Commons) Open Access (Journal articles) Open Education

The Rise of “Open” How open changes everything: –Fosters collaboration –Reduces transactions costs (collaboration and IP) –Freedom to innovate –Reduces lock-in –Encourages a level playing field

Open & Business? Some commercial models are predicated on closed approaches to IP, collaboration, customer control, etc –Closed models may experience “creative destruction” from open approaches (but only if open scales successfully) A new category of business is being built on open models from the ground up by entrepreneurs –In software, the focus is on services and support, not selling licenses (eg, Red Hat) Also seeing hybrid open and closed models –Good for new companies; challenging for dominant players

Open in Asia Open approaches, especially open source software, are being adopted rapidly across Asia –Price & freedom of use –Growing the local ICT industry –Avoiding lock-in to foreign companies –(A free alternative to piracy!) A strategic choice to combat ICT trade imbalances Some entrepreneurs use OSS as commodity ICT infrastructure to allow more focus on their unique area of advantage

Open Education Education movement within the wider open principles –“Cape Town Open Education Declaration” “everyone should have the freedom to use, customize, improve and redistribute educational resources without constraint” Special focus on the educational benefits that arise from open sharing and improvement

Open Education Examples of success in open education –Wikipedia: Top 10 global websites –Moodle Course Management System: sites, 20M users –MIT Open Courseware: Millions of users per month Not just students – teachers as well; many from Asia My work is in open source software for creating digital lesson plans (LAMS) & sharing these as open content

Case Study: LAMS LAMS is the world’s leading software for digital lesson plans –1000s of educators across 80+ countries –Translated into 25 languages (including Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Malay, Vietnamese) Visual “drag and drop” approach to designing activities –Helps educators to visualise teaching and learning processes LAMS Sequences can be shared, re-used and adapted –LAMS Community ( –Approximately 3300 members, 86 countries, 290 shared sequences downloaded 7500 times, 3700 discussion postings Freely available as open source software –(Fee-based hosting and tech support from LAMS International – open source services and support company; spin-off from Macquarie)

LAMS Community – Repository Summary

Open Education in Asia Growing adoption of open source software and open content for education across Asia –Price and freedom of use are key drivers Asian educational approaches are often assumed to be more traditional (“sage on the stage” vs “guide on the side”) –But not my experience of LAMS partners in China and Japan –Hunger for new educational technology & collaborative learning –Government keen to foster innovative thinking by students –Teachers still highly respective, but more interest in groupwork/projects

Future Directions Continuing growth of open approaches globally and in Asia Growth of open education in Asia –Particularly driven by free content and software Considerable interest in new “open” pedagogical methods and software to support these (eg, LAMS) –Benefits for entrepreneurship education, especially team work Government strategic focus of using open innovations to drive local IT industry and educational transformation – to compete globally
