Abstract
Today's workplace is showing that global quality of learning embodied development of hard skills and soft skills. The hard skills are specific tangible abilities such as reading, communication, leadership, flexibility, motivation, persuasion, and problem solving. Soft skills are less tangible because they refer to personality traits, social graces, and personal habits that are used in relationships with other people. Development of soft skills in an open learning environment involves motivation, mind, and body movement. OER has the power to transform education. The aim of this chapter is to explore issues of using and collaborative creation of open textbooks and the pedagogy of hard and soft skills development. After summarizing the idea of hard and soft skills development, the author suggests new study topics that may promote an interesting line of future research in the area of frontier pedagogy.
