What is being disrupting?
What does disruption mean for Values based organisations?
Have [can] ODL providers over emphasise the needs of vulnerable learners?
Is ODL being disrupted at all? Perhaps it is HE and potentially lucrative CPD markets that are being disrupted by Open?

The “Wrong” Disruption
IGNORE Digital Literacies –
“Second Digital Divide”
Arose in jurisdictions with high fee
regimes and where Governments in
some countries are closing informal to
formal routes
Reinforce the sense of the academy as
the provider of knowledge

The “Other” DisruptionSolution, purchase new entrant or disrupt yourself – separate entity that works in disruptive space (MOOCs)
Solution, exploit uniqueness, let many flowers bloom, stay close to your valuesDemand side disruption, new entrant comes in disrupts demand by attracting niche then main customers
Supply side disruption, new entrant/tech changes the way good or services are supplied
A. Open, technical affordances
B. Openness

SO WHAT: Learning the Right Lessons• Organisational Values, a narrative on open which disrupts open as a technical or licence but as a focus on social justice and equity• Uniqueness, more than open access, active support to encourage participation reaching into communities – scale and scope• Many flowers, promote multiple voices and approaches, openness can blur the boundaries between the academy and “others”, disrupt supply or curriculum and content

Conclusion… It is not clear whether OER/MOOCs are disrupting “demand side” of ODL
A) OER/MOOCs might allow ODL to reach into new markets, but need economic models and at moment OER/MOOCs often an idea looking for business model, a solution looking for a problem. B) as in our market support and credit are not “extras” but a vital component of openness, moving beyond access and as participation.
[However] Openness can disrupt supply, leading to more open model and responsive models of curriculum development.
