Abstract

Open Educational Resources (OER) and Open Educational Practices (OEP) are making education accessible to all through open licensing of materials. Case studies in this book represent a realization of the dreams of participating teachers from the Sri Lankan school system. Their stories are a testament to a thirst for knowledge and for the improvement of the lives of their students, as well as their own as teachers. Through the 5-Rs framework: Retain; Reuse; Revise; Remix & Redistribution, OER supports the ‘opening up’ of education, providing teachers and learners with opportunities for sharing educational resources openly and freely.
