The essence of OER• 1) Open access• 2) Freely available• 3) Shareable• 4) Relatively discrete ‘chunks’• 5)Saves needing to ‘re-invent the wheel’• 6) Needs to be contextualised• 7) You can add to the OER pool.

1. Identify the main generic headings for course content (key topics for discussion and
learning)
2. Search for relevant
resources that can be re-
used for these headings
3. Write ‘wrap-around’ materials that
contextualise and support the learning resources
4. Add your new materials
to the common pool (if required)
5. Select the format for
sharing (wiki etc)

How OER are usedOpen
• Ad hoc (on the fly)• Bottom-up• Low cost (or free)• Not always peer reviewed• Free to all users• Weak marketing brand• Inexpensive to maintain• Reliant upon individuals• May need contextualisation• Wide variation in level
Membership• More structured• Tend to be top-down• Can be expensive• Usually peer reviewed• Free to membership• Strong marketing brand• Expensive to maintain• Reliant upon organisations• Probably contextualised• Greater consistency in level
