Resumen en español al final del artículo

Thanks to a Google+ post by OLPC San Francisco's Sameer Verma I learned about the "Why Open Education Matters" competition organized by Creative Commons, the U.S. Department of Education, and the Open Society Foundations. The winning video was created by a South African creative agency called Blinktower and it's definitely well worth watching!


You can also watch the other 60+ video submitted to the competition whereby the "Open Education Resource!" music video is among my favorites from what I've seen so far.

Resumen en español: Gracias a un post de Sameer Verma de OLPC San Francisco me enteré del concurso "¿Por qué la educación abierta es importante?", organizado por Creative Commons, el Departamento de Educación de EE.UU., y Open Society Foundations. El video ganador fue creado por una agencia creativa sudafricana llamada Blinktower y les recomiendo verlo! También se puede ver los otros 60+ videos presentados al concurso.
