Abstract
Education should not be a privilege but a common good. It should be openly
accessible to everyone, with as few barriers as possible; even more so for key
technologies such as Machine Learning (ML) and Data Science (DS). Open
Educational Resources (OER) are a crucial factor for greater educational
equity. In this paper, we describe the specific requirements for OER in ML and
DS and argue that it is especially important for these fields to make source
files publicly available, leading to Open Source Educational Resources (OSER).
We present our view on the collaborative development of OSER, the challenges
this poses, and first steps towards their solutions. We outline how OSER can be
used for blended learning scenarios and share our experiences in university
education. Finally, we discuss additional challenges such as credit assignment
or granting certificates.
