%X GO-GN is a worldwide network of PhD researchers and their supervisors in the field of OER, MOOCs, and Open Education. It has been initiated in 2012 and is coordinated by the UNESCO Chair in OER at the Open University of the Netherlands.
The idea behind GO-GN is to form an alternative for the com- mon situation of individual PhD researchers doing their PhD study in ‘isolation’ at their home universities. GO-GN is linking them as they are based at different universities across country borders, and is offering the opportunity of a broader support and supervision
by experts with different backgrounds. Typically a GO-GN PhD researcher will be supervised by a team of three experts from different institutions, chaired by the main supervisor from the PhD degree awarding university. We are facilitating this as we also can assist potential PhD students in search for an appropriate PhD degree awarding university. GO-GN is stimulating the sharing of PhD study practices and experiences and the development of working relations among its PhD researchers and supervisors. And we will guide our members towards courses that can be taken online in order to raise their competencies within the context of their PhD study. This all, of course, related to research in OER, MOOCs, and Open Education.
