e’ve coined the term open-source education to emphasize the power of a community-driven, adaptive approach within the scope and promise of emergent pedagogy. We offer this as our way to promote a reflexive culture, freely encouraging everyone to share their input and skills to make the education in which we collaborate ever stronger. In this wide world that we have inherited, there are as many ways to learn as people there are who learn; as many ways to teach as people among us who live, breathe, move, speak, and share their stories. Everyone has something to contribute for we don’t know what you know. Please, come share!

We also intend open-source to be taken literally, ensuring that our educational assets will always be made available to the public. Though many of our “resources” are not readily transferable, e.g. the previous experience, brainstorming and research, etc. that we put into all that we create, we will always make ourselves available to guide you through any given process as best we can. With a sense of enthusiasm and an inculcated love of learning—those being the primary aims for which the Incunabulum exists in the first place—and always allowing for flexibility in our approach and novelty in how we will achieve every end, there will be little to nothing that cannot ultimately be conferred between us, skills and all.

So here we are, a ship, a potential armada, guided by one thousand (symbolic) winds—not least of them being the winds of change. Yet somehow it feels as though we are navigating our way back to something ancient, something timeless.
