Audiences

"Learning in the Open" classes are for anyone who wants to learn about open content, technology and work methods. Courses may target a specific audience (Learning in the Open for Musicians) or be more general (Learning in the Open Bangalore)—it's all up to the local organizers.

Examples of possible audiences include the following; note that some of these categories overlap (e.g., teachers/professors, scientists/researchers, bloggers/journalists).

  • Artists (primarily) working in digital media
  • Filmmakers creating movies, documentaries, and other works for theatrical, TV, or online distribution
  • Musicians
  • Teachers (K-12)
  • Professors (in higher education)
  • Scientists (e.g., working with public data sets and/or open access publications)
  • Researchers (e.g., in the humanities)
  • Writers (of long-form or short-form fiction or non-fiction)
  • Bloggers
  • Journalists
  • Community organizers and activists
  • Government employees
  • Publishers
  • Small business people

All audiences would get a grounding in certain core topics, along with material customized for them; for more information see the topics page.
