 My vision is that we create an amazing resource that has breadth and depth, that we cover the large part of our engineering curriculum and have this resource available to everyone and everyone contributes to it and it just continues to grow. So there are lots of advantages to online homework but most of the sites are paid sites. Web work is an open source platform. It was designed in the mid 90s and it came out of mathematics departments so they wanted something that they could use to create problems that would individualize the problem for each student so we kind of enter variables and those change based on each student's question. The advantage with this is that students can collaborate and I encourage them to share solution strategies and to learn from each other but at the same time they can't just say well the answer is five you know because it's going to be slightly different so they have to explain their methodology. For the students the value of an open platform is that they're not paying a lot of money for a system like one produced by a publisher. They also get questions that might be more relevant to the specific types of questions their instructor is going to ask. For instructors there are a lot of advantages so you can modify the problems, you can create new ones and you can really customize your course materials. We were also appreciating that web work was open source so that gives us a lot of advantages in terms of being able to build problems it's very flexible but also being able to share problems with other schools. There's this thing called the open problem library and so it's a collection of problems from universities around the world that are openly shared. There are about 35,000 problems available on the open problem library right now so we want to expand that and if we build some problems then hopefully other people will contribute as well and we'll have a gigantic problem bank of our own on the open problem library. One of the one of the most challenging parts with open educational resources is trying to curate everything. There's so much that's out there and so it's really going through it and putting it in a way that is coherent for students. My hopes for open in general are that students will have greater access to things that that they feel can can really impact their own education. The more different resources that I have and different tools that I can use to bring to students the more that I think they can get out of the course and they can kind of personalize their own learning.
