UNESCO-COL GUIDELINES
OER are teaching, learning, and research materials in any medium that reside in the public domain or have been released under an open licence that permits their free use and, in some instances, re-purposing by others. The use of open file formats improves access and reuse potential of OERs which are developed and published digitally
