6. Open Educational Resources are teaching, learning, or
research materials that are in the public domain or released
with an intellectual property license that allows for free use,
adaptation, and distribution (Plotkin 2010, UNESCO 2011a).
UNESCO defined OER as material used to support education
that may be freely accessed, reused, modified and shared by
anyone (2011/07/14).
COL-UNESCO defines OER as: The phenomenon of OER is an
empowerment process, facilitated by technology in which
various types of stakeholders are able to interact, collaborate,
create, and use materials and pedagogic practices, that are
freely available, for enhancing access, reducing costs, and
improving the quality of education and learning at all levels
(Kanwar, Balasubramanian & Umar 2010).
