The document outlines both benefits and challenges of using Open Educational Resources (OER). The key benefits are that OER are free of cost for learners, can be easily used widely by instructors in their classrooms, allow professors to showcase their work and talents, provide opportunities for funding support, and can be continuously upgraded unlike textbooks. However, challenges of OER include potential variability in quality since not all undergo rigorous review, issues with accessibility for those without internet, language barriers, concern over maintaining outdated materials, and that creating high-quality OER can be time-consuming.

the rising cost of textbooks; consequently, OER
provides students with the option of studying
without purchasing books.

2)Easy to use widely
Instructors can readily utilize OER in the
classroom teaching. Instructors can also include
a portion of the OER resource into their course
and customize course content in innovative
ways.
4. 5 BENEFITS OF OER
3) Showcasing talent
This is an opportunity for the professors to
share their research findings and experience
with the public audience. This might also be
advantageous to the institution in terms of
student enrollment.
5. 5 BENEFITS OF OER

There are grants, such as those from the
National Science Foundation (NSF), that fund

of the OER content.

Maintaining OER resources is critical as material

grants or other forms of financing aid in the
creation of OER materials, but few may offer help in
their maintenance, leaving the author with little
motivation to keep the resource up to date.
