Abstract

This paper presents an overview of Open Educational Resources (OERs) and examines the key factors influencing their production and dissemination.
Characteristics of OERs in support of teaching and learning are described, along with international research, applications, tools and models of use in learning. Main OERs’ limitations are discussed, especially those which hinder their diffusion. Finally, reasons to use and produce OER are pointed out for institutions, teachers, and researchers.
