It's an open secret that
not many teachers or students would share their knowledge or
experience. Others would never tell anyone from where they are
getting all their information. Others seal their information and
would make one pay if one wants to make use of it! Hence there would be a financial burden for some.
Through this blog, we
have been gaining more attention from more readers towards an outward
mentality approach where sharing is truly caring for others. Sharing
means enrichment to the very person who shares because one can
receive feedback and become richer. Readers would be enriched because
the information is being shared. So it's a win win philosophy.
Though the term "open
educational resources" has become widely used in recent years,
not everyone is clear on exactly what it means.
According to the Hewlett
Foundation, whose definition is considered the most official,
says Lisa Petrides, the CEO and founder of the Institute for the
Study of Knowledge Management in Education (ISKME), "[open
educational resources] are teaching, learning, and research resources
that reside in the public domain or have been released under an
intellectual property license that permits their free use and
re-purposing by others. Open educational resources (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."
