The Benefits & Challenges of OER

By Aubrey

Benefits of OER

Affordable for students Allows instructors to share materials they have

found helpful Allows instructors to customize materials to meet

their needs Can make materials accessible without worrying

about violating copyright laws Could reduce course prep time

Challenges of OER

Are the materials accurate/peer-reviewed? Are the materials current? May not be able to find materials for less common

courses May increase course prep to make materials

accessible Some students may not have access to computers

outside of school
