How free is free? Do they submit resources that only you can own the copyright to like IMDb does? Can anyone not an official student participate allowing public education?

How are you going to fund maintenance with no clear business model?

I hope it doesn't discourage you!

Open is free for individual teachers to use. We will not own resources submitted to Open.

And yes, anyone can watch any lesson on the site (another reason we're named Open).

Our revenue model is based upon service we intend provide to schools.
