Abstract: Many systematic literature reviews have examined open education. However, Indonesia's open education implementation has been barely studied. This study used the systematic literature review method to examine the implementation of open education in Indonesia. The study was conducted through a rigorous article selection using PRISMA and PICO frameworks. As many as 26 of 64 studies gained from the Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases and published from 2013 to 2022 were analysed and synthesised. This analysis found 34% of articles published in 2020 and 61% employed qualitative approaches. Technology analysis and application were the most researched topics, followed by institutional policy analysis. Finally, open education has numerous benefits and drawbacks, particularly in learning support facilities. This study also discusses whether Indonesia should continue using open education and recommends research. The findings can be a reference for researchers and stakeholders worldwide about the benefits and constraints of implementing open learning.

Keywords: open education; Massive Open Online Courses; MOOCs; distance education; PRISMA; PICO.
