Open educational resources

This list is part of the Open Access Directory.

• This is a retired list.

• It was never an active OAD list. It was a "list under development" that we decided to retire rather than promote. The short version of the long story is that there are already very good lists of OER elsewhere. For examples, see "Open educational resources (OERs)" in Lists maintained by others.

• For news and comment about OER, follow the oa.oer tag of the Open Access Tracking Project.

• Here are the original, draft scope notes:
  • This is a list of open educational resources (OERs).
  • The lists are part of the Open Access Directory and is sponsored by UNESCO.
  • The resources listed are fully or partially freely available (not a trial).
  • Any added resource which is strictly commercial with no free resources will be deleted.
  • The resources are in English unless otherwise noted in the description.
