Abstract:

“In recent years, the focus of research on open education has shifted from open educational resources (OER) to open educational practices (OEP), which emphasizes practical application. To examine the latest developments in OEP on a global scale, this study employs CiteSpace, a tool for visualizing data and information. The findings suggest that OEP is gaining more attention, and analysis of keyword co-occurrence and literature reviews indicate that OEP should encompass not only OER but also open pedagogy and open educational technologies. Consequently, this study puts forth a preliminary framework for open educational practices, termed as Open TPACK, with the objective of promoting the theoretical investigation and progress of open education.”
