Resumen
Open Educational Practices (OEP) have become a growing educational trend
based on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), which have been
linked both from literature and practice with emerging and complex topics such
as Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) and Open Educational Resources
(OER). This essay presents a critical approach to Open Educational Practices
regarding their conceptual framework and considering a current and rather than
an excessive focus on free access to knowledge. We propose that transforming
educational content, making it available, is not enough to produce educational
innovation and consequently it becomes necessary to transform educational
practices, turning them open. Although the transition from OER to OEP has
already been considered in the literature, a new perspective beyond free access
and costless is necessary to maximize the innovative potential of “openness”.
