Abstract

The Research on Open Educational Resources for Development (ROER4D) operational definition of Open Research is: the process of conducting and sharing research on publicly accessible platforms in order for others to freely access, use, modify, and share them, subject to measures that preserve ethical practice and legal provenance. Legal openness refers to the use of appropriate alternative licensing mechanisms such as Creative Commons, as well as the knowledge and resources required to apply and/or negotiate open licensing, copyright clearance, and related intellectual property considerations. This presentation clarifies some ROER4D concepts and recommendations.
