The gateway to European innovative learning
The European Commission launched Open Education Europa in September 2013 as part of the Opening Up Education initiative to provide a single gateway to European OER. This portal is grounded on the basis of the elearningeuropa.info portal, active since 2002 to support the transformation of education through technology. Today, with close to 38,000 registered users and an average of 55,000 monthly visits, it has become the meeting point for exploring change and innovation in education.
The main goal of the Open Education Europa portal is to offer access to all existing European Open Educational Resources in different languages in order to be able to present them to learners, teachers and researchers.
Open Education Europa is a dynamic platform built with the latest cutting-edge open-source technology, offering tools for communicating, sharing and discussing.

The renewed website will make it easier to search for open courses and relevant resources in different languages, interact with peers in thematic groups, and access high quality research materials. All of the existing content will remain available, now conveniently reorganized to make it easier to navigate. Today’s learners expect more personalization, collaboration and better links between formal and informal learning. Europe has to take action to provide its citizens with the necessary skills for the 21st century.
Open Education Europa forms part of the Opening Up Education initiative that will be launched by the European Commission on September 25th. The initiative will scale up the creation, use, re-use and sharing of quality digital education content, including Open Educational Resources. It will increase equity and encourage the modernization of learning, teaching and assessment practices through the use of digital technologies.
We invite you to visit the portal on the 25th of September and be part of the transformation!

Why are MOOCs innovative? They provide alternative ways for students to gain new knowledge according to a given curriculum. MOOCs can also enhance learners’ ability to think creatively to select and adapt a paradigm to solve the problem at hand. These are the main findings of a case study on the Discrete Optimization MOOC on Coursera.

The European Commission's Opening up Education initiative in a nutshell
The main goal of this initiative is to stimulate ways of learning and teaching through ICT and digital content, mainly through the development and availability of OER. Amongst its actions, the most important one is to change the role of digital technologies at school. All the actions within the initiative are put in place with the hope that they help attain the ultimate objective, namely to boost competitiveness and growth at the European level.
