Open Culture는 Stanford University의 Assistant Dean인 Dan Colman에 의해 운영되는 블로그입니다. Stanford Univ.의 학생, 교수들이 협업하여 포스팅을 하고 있네요.
세계의 많은 대학에서 이미 강의 동영상을 Open하여 대중에게 제공하고 있고, 매학기 정기적인 Podcasting을 발행하고 있습니다. 요즘 미국, 캐나다, 영국, 호주의 학생들이 iPod를 휴대하고 다니면서 지난 강의를 복습하거나 관심있는 수업을 듣는 모습을 많이 볼 수 있는데요, 학술정보도 이제 개방, 공유하는 시대가 되었기 때문에 가능한 것 같습니다.
하고자 하는 마음만 있다면, 공부할 수 있는 자원들은 넘치고 넘치는 세상이죠. 각자가 정보를 어떻게 선별해서 활용할 것인가, 그것이 관건인 것 같습니다. 골라잡는 것은 여러 분의 몫이죠~^^ Open Culture에 풍덩 빠져 봅시다 !
대부분이 미국 대학의 Lecture지만, 영국, 프랑스, 호주 등의 대학에서도 Courseware를 Open하고 있는 것이 눈에 띕니다. University & College Podcast 리스트를 제공하네요. iTune이 없는 경우, Apple iTune Free Download를 설치하시고 PC나 iPod에서 Podcasting 이용하세요.
