In an article dedicated to definition careful word use is most important, so it's not a good sign when the title says "in search for..." instead of "in search of...". And the definition of an 'open educator', offered about half way through, though strong in concept, suffers from similar word usage flaws. One part refers to "past and potential students" but omits current students. Another says "Uses open educational content" and then describes the creation and release of OERs. It advocates "allowing learners to contribute to public knowledge resources" when there's no real way an educator could prevent them from doing so. A shorter, sharper and clearer definition would be more appropriate.
