I would like to propose the beginnings of a Manifesto for a Free Curriculum. I am offering up this initial version as a very rough list. It is my hope that others will respond and add to it....Learning occurs in open environments that foster organic growth....Learners must have open access to the Learning Curriculum at all times and be allowed to work through as much of the Curriculum as possible.... Access to the Learning Curriculum is a fundamental human right. Therefore, the Learning Curriculum must be free.

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
