In my science fiction tale of the future of the open education movement, the OpenCourseWars, I predict a time when the federal government creates a funding pool to support the creation of open courses to which the public would have free access. Of course, that has already happened with the $2B Department of Labor grants.
Later in that tale, some trouble is caused when a Chinese organization begins using US-produced OCW in violation of the NC clause of the Creative Commons licenses. Guess what the Chronicle is reporting today?
