This interest in improving access has led to the growth of the open educational movement, and an explosion of openly accessible and\/or openly licensed resources for education such as Massively Open Online Courses (MOOCs), textbooks, and other open educational resources. However, learning is more than content, and consequently open education must include more than just open educational resources. As Wiley (2018) has argued, we need to talk about an open education\u00a0<\/span><em>infrastructure,\u00a0<\/em><span>which I conclude involves open practices, open content, and open recognition of learning. While open content has been discussed for 30 years and is the most well known, open practices and open recognition have been largely ignored. However, o<\/span><span>ne emerging innovation to support how we assess and recognize learning is digital micro\/nanocredentials. In this presentation, I will focus on open micro\/nanocredentials as one aspect of the open education infrastructure due to their ability to disrupt traditional educational practices surrounding how we recognize and certify learning. I will also discuss findings from research into how these open credentials might be able to impact teaching and learning at the micro (individual), meso (institutional), and macro (society) levels, concluding with recommendations for both practice and research.<\/span><span><br \/><\/span>al), meso (institucional) y macro (sociedad), concluyendo con recomendaciones tanto para la pr\u00e1ctica como para la investigaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;About&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; min_height=&#8221;562px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-3px|||||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; padding_top_bottom_link_1=&#8221;true&#8221; padding_left_right_link_1=&#8221;true&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; min_height=&#8221;552.8px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; background_image=&#8221;https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wp-uploads.bucket.wp.uc3m.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2021\/05\/28095053\/column-background-02.png&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;50px|50px|50px|50px&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;20px|20px|20px|20px|true|true&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; padding_phone=&#8221;20px|20px|20px|20px|true|true&#8221; padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wp-uploads.bucket.wp.uc3m.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2022\/04\/08104045\/west_richard_200x280_65dcef30da6f539c0db3983700ba9659.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;west_richard_200x280_65dcef30da6f539c0db3983700ba9659&#8243; align_tablet=&#8221;center&#8221; align_phone=&#8221;&#8221; align_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; animation_style=&#8221;zoom&#8221; animation_intensity_zoom=&#8221;10%&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset1&#8243; box_shadow_vertical=&#8221;32px&#8221; box_shadow_blur=&#8221;100px&#8221; box_shadow_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0.15)&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;0px|||&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; padding_tablet=&#8221;0px|||&#8221; padding_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.9em&#8221; header_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Roboto|300|||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;50px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;40px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify\">Bio<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span>Dr. Richard E.
