What are OER - Open Educational Resources

“Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching,
learning and research materials in any medium – digital
or otherwise – that reside in the public domain or have
been released under an open license that permits
no-cost access, use, adaptation and redistribution by
others with no or limited restrictions.”*
* UNESCO

“OER include full courses, course
materials, modules, textbooks, streaming
videos, tests, software, and any other
tools, materials, or techniques used to
support access to knowledge."*
*The Hewlett Foundation

When we share,
everyone wins.
