Open Educational Resources (OERs) are freely accessible and openly licensed teaching and learning materials that can be reused, shared, revised and remixed. OERs may be an individual module or learning object or entire courses or textbooks. Teaching staff can use OERs to:

• reduce costs for students
• increase student engagement and success
• avoid restrictive licensing conditions that often accompany purchased teaching and learning materials
• support equitable and inclusive learning and teaching practices.
