Open Praxis (May 2023)
Shaping the Future by Looking at the Past of Openness in Education and Open Praxis: Rising on the Shoulders of Giants
Abstract
The concept of openness is a driving force in the larger educational landscape, and the journal Open Praxis pays special attention to it. This editorial examines past publications by benefiting from data mining and analytics approaches to better understand what has been explored thus far to shape a better future and identify a vision that contributes to these values, along with other related topics. The analysis of publications revealed two broad themes: (1) openness as a praxis and (2) digital and online technologies as catalysts for openness. This editorial has portrayed a panoramic view of the earlier publications that can help build a strategic road map and offers a road map that would effectively contribute to the accumulation of scholarly knowledge.
