Open educational resources
Using open educational resources in courses takes time to find relevant materials, customize them for the class, and replace any broken links or missing content. However, this process keeps the instructor engaged with the course materials and ensures each resource enhances the objectives. Resources must also be logically integrated into the course sequence and address the objectives. While shared materials may lack value or attribution, reviewing them critically helps instructors understand content and improve shared resources through peer assessment.
OER
Open educational resources (OER) are freely available online teaching and learning materials that can be used and reused without cost. OER benefit individuals by improving access to quality resources, education systems by lowering costs through collaborative development and reuse of existing materials, and education providers by reducing costs and allowing more diverse curriculums. OER include full courses, textbooks, modules, lessons, tests, videos, and software that reside in the public domain or are released under open licenses permitting free use.
OER @GSW
This document discusses open educational resources (OER) and a study conducted at Georgia Southwestern State University (GSW) on using OER in an introductory psychology course. The study compared student performance and satisfaction between those using a traditional $100 textbook and those using a free online open-source textbook. Results found no significant difference in grades but students preferred the free online textbook and liked not having to purchase a textbook. Challenges included finding appropriate open-source texts and adjusting to the online format. Future directions include wider OER adoption across departments and increased OER awareness.
