The
internet has made it easier for everyone to share content across the world and for
educators to share and adapt materials.
The idea of sharing resources is the
basis of OER. These are resources with an open license, where the author or
creator remains as the rights-holder but chooses which rights to retain and
which rights to waive.
In an OER the creator allows users to access and
reproduce the materials without cost and, under certain open licences, to adapt
or change the resource.
however, the user does not need permission from the author to use the resource, except to reference it at the end of the usage to guard against plagiarism.
This has made many people all over the world, including my very self to gain a lot of experiences especially where there is no physical library to use. It has made learning to be very easy even right inside the bedroom or any part of the world.
