Open Educational Resources

Open Educational Resources
Open Educational Resources are digitized learning materials or tools freely available to students and the greater educational community. These materials may be documents, software-based tools, course modules, or even entire courses. Open educational resources are becoming essential to educators and learners as the cost of textbooks continues to rise.
