David Sevier is Founder of the Open Source Teaching Project (OST).
OST is founded on the belief that the knowledge of award-winning scholars, researchers, and others in the top of their field should be made available to inspire and inform students across the globe. At present, OST has secured interview commitments from nearly 200 Nobel Laureates, Guggenheim Fellows, Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellows, and MacArthur Fellows. Each will contribute to what is quickly becoming the world's largest repository of focused knowledge on discrete topics of high interest to learners at all ages and stages. Specifically, this knowledge relates to current research that is ongoing and groundbreaking. OST is not limited to areas of scholarly endeavor. OST conducts outreach to Academic All-Americans, Academy Award winners, Grammy winners and others who can donate time to share their experiences related to their careers and successes. This database of knowledge is interactive, keyword searchable, and has the potential to engage all learners at the highest levels of cognition.
