OEWeek25: One for the Record Books!

This year, Open Education Week 2025 was a six-week event! Intense activity took place from March 3-8 … events, contests, activities, and challenges took place from around mid-February until the very last day of March.

There was so much to summarize we made it into a video.

The OEWeek25 summary is also available as a PDF Infographic (5.3Mb).

Collectively, the global open education community contributed 461 elements to Open Education Week – from as little as adding an asset to one of 3 platforms to as much as hosting a series of events at their college. It was an incredible expression of open education – introducing open education via comic books, showcasing exciting new assets, exploring the impact of OER on campuses, discussing the challenges that open educators face, and adding new images to the Commons. Every event, every micro contribution brought a little more open education into a world that needs it!

2025 is the 13th year of Open Education Week … and it was an incredible display of the diverse contributions that can be made in the pursuit of open education!

Thank you, Open Education heroes around the world! You have provided fantastic fuel to an increasing community of passionate users and practitioners.
