Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching, learning, and research materials that are freely accessible and openly licensed, allowing educators and students to use, adapt, share, and redistribute them. These resources can include textbooks, lesson plans, videos, assessments, and even tools for creating and managing content. OER reside in the public domain or are protected by open licenses, such as Creative Commons, which promote flexibility and innovation in education while reducing costs and improving access for learners.
This guide is designed to help you explore and integrate OER into your teaching, with tips for finding, adapting, and creating resources. Our library team is here to provide support through consultations, workshops, and guidance in navigating open licenses and platforms.
