Open Educational Resources
From DurhamtechWiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchOpen Educational Resources (OER) are instructional materials that are made available to instructors and/or learners for free.

Many open educational resources have a public license (such as a Creative Commons license) that specifies how the materials may be used, adapted, and shared.
Open Educational Resources have been funded in large part by The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, which has given more than $100 million over the last 8 years to MIT, Yale, and others "to increase access to knowledge for all and improve the practices of teaching and learning" (Hafner).
