The benefits include increased access to learning materials for students around the world, enabling student success, free costs for students, and quick dissemination of information globally. Challenges include the need for reliable internet access, requiring new skills to adopt OER, some student preference for traditional textbooks, needing incentives for instructors to create OER, and fully understanding open licensing.
