27 OER (Open Educational Resources)

Open Educational Resources (OER) are materials that are free to use in our courses.

Here are some common sources for OER:

• Lumen Learning: Open textbooks services company.
• OER Commons: Repository for openly licensed content.
• Openverse: Search engine for openly license audio and images.
• Flickr: Openly licensed images.
