What are Open Educational Resources

OERs are defined as “educational materials—textbooks, research articles, videos, assessments, simulations—that are either licensed under an open copyright license—for example, Creative Commons—or in the public domain. In both cases you have free (no-cost) access to the OER and free (no-cost) permission to engage in the “4R” activities when using them, including:

  • Revise: adapt and improve the OER so it better meets your needs
  • Reuse: use the original or your new version of the OER in a wide range of contexts
  • Remix: combine or “mashup” the OER with other OER to produce new materials
  • Redistribute: make copies and share the original OER or your new version with others (Wiley, Green & Soares 2012:2).
