En aquest treball investiguem un plantejament de canvi institucional encaminat a establir pràctiques educatives obertes (PEO) en una universitat i inculcar l'ús de recursos educatius oberts (REO) com a part del seu treball curricular i la seva pràctica educativa. Les pràctiques tradicionals, consistents a proporcionar recursos d'aprenentatge per a un ensenyament individualitzat en mòduls acadèmics semestrals, s'adapten cada vegada pitjor als requisits d'un panorama educatiu dinàmic i global. Els REO ofereixen una alternativa sostenible i equitativa a aquestes pràctiques tancades, i tenen la capacitat de satisfer la demanda emergent en entorns d'aprenentatge distribuït. No obstant això, canviar les pràctiques educatives continua essent un repte formidable, i l'adopció dels REO comporta una ruptura radical pel que fa a les pràctiques institucionals heretades. En aquest treball ens centrem en el punt de partida per a integrar els REO en el treball curricular i les pràctiques educatives. A la Universitat La Trobe (Austràlia) investiguem aquest canvi més per mitjà d'iniciatives emergents que d'un programa dissenyat jeràrquicament des de dalt: ens plantegem quines són les connexions necessàries per a implantar pràctiques obertes en una universitat. Descrivim tres casos de PEO que, junts, generen capacitats de REA en una universitat. Aprofitem l'estratègia de bootstrapping plantejada per Bardini com a procés d'aprenentatge iteratiu i coadaptatiu que connecta les bones pràctiques in situ amb les estructures institucionals a fi d'establir les bases de treball per al canvi emergent. Aquests casos demostren com uns processos innovadors tan dispars es poden connectar i modificar per a crear una xarxa de PEO incipient.
