Open Educational Resources (OER) • “Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching, learning, and research materials in
any medium that reside in the public domain or have been released under an open license that permits their free use and re-purposing by others.” (Hewlett Foundation)
• Technology-enabled, open provision of educational resources for consultation, use and adaptation by a community of users for non-commercial purposes (UNESCO, 2002).
• “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” (Hewlett Foundation)
• Teaching-learning and research materials released with an open license to permit reuse and repurpose in whole or in part
• Core of OER is how a resource is licensed for use, rather than the format of the resource itself

Creative Commons (CC) License• Creative Commons founded by Lary Lessig et al. in 2001• Provides easy-to-use open licenses for creative works • Provide simple and flexible licenses• Some Rights Reserved - authors reserve some rights & grant share,
use, repurpose permissions

5 Rs of Open Content
Reuse - to use the content in a wide
range of ways (e.g., in a class, in a study
group, on a website, in a video)
Revise - adapt, adjust, modify, or alter the content
itself (e.g., translate the content into
another language)
Remix - combine the original or
revised content with other OER to create something
new (e.g., incorporate the content into a
mashup)
Redistribute - share copies of the
original content, your revisions, or your remixes with others (e.g., give a
copy of the content to a friend)
Retain - make, own, and control copies
of the content (e.g., download,
duplicate, store, and manage)

How can we use OER?Use OER to:• enhance an existing course or offering by adding OER• improve existing materials by replacing it with OER• create new part of materials by using or re-purposing OER• create new courses by using, re-using and repurposing OER• assign OER-based learning activities to students
01/05/2023 15
Why OER?• Increase access to quality education • Save costs for students• Eliminate duplication of effort & reduce faculty learning content
development time • Adaptation and repurposing build capacity (technology-enabled teaching-
learning) among educators• Update and revise whenever required• Promote collaborative teaching-learning practices• Enhance institution’s and faculty reputation• Social responsibility (individual or organization) – “quality education for all”
