Abstract

Internet penetration, the policy landscape, as well as broadband accessibility and speed, are some of the topics of comparison in this PowerPoint presentation drawn from an overview of Open Educational Resources (OER) research conducted in 9 countries and 3 regions. Country teams, networks, and participating researchers in Research in Open Educational Resources for Development (ROER4D) are listed. The review provides a general overview of OER projects, policies, and research, plus infrastructural, legal, socio-cultural and/or economic factors that might influence OER adoption in South America, Sub-Saharan Africa, and South and South East Asia.
