On Wednesday, March 7, SUNY--ESC celebrated with an event called O.P.E.N. (OPEN Projects Enriching New york). For this event, we had presenters and physical audiences in Empire State College centers in Manhattan, Saratoga, Syracuse and Buffalo, connected via teleconference. The sessions were streamed online with a Twitter backchannel.
Carla Casilli, the Open Badges Project Lead for the Mozilla Foundation delivered the keynote. Donna Mahar, ESC Teacher Education Faculty member, presented our Virtual Teaching Incubator; Amy McQuigge, Coordinator for Student and Academic Services of the School for Graduate Studies, presented on our Badging initiative as it relates to the Teaching Incubator; and the final presentation was on our Virtual Business Incubator, presented by Dr. Nick Boccolucci, Incubator Coordinator, and Dr. Joseph Angiello, Coordinator of the Community and Economic Development Program.
For those who were not able to attend, a recording is available at either:

I had the opportunity to present the opening welcome, and in doing so, I came back to the beginning of this blog and began to read and realized how quickly the field of openness, and what we learn from one another moves at hyperbolic speeds.
