Commissionaire Vassilio presented her view for

today and for tomorrow at the EADTU conference in

Cyprus 2012

" We must engage in a fundamental transformation

of our education and training systems

And we need to fully exploit the potentioal that open

and flexible education offers" (EADTU 120929)

Open Educational Resources are teaching, learning, or

research materials that are in the public domain or released

with an intellectual property license that allows for free use,

adaptation, and distribution (Plotkin 2010, UNESCO 2011a).

UNESCO defined OER as material used to support education

that may be freely accessed, reused, modified and shared by

anyone (2011/07/14).

COL-UNESCO defines OER as: The phenomenon of OER is an

empowerment process, facilitated by technology in which

various types of stakeholders are able to interact, collaborate,

create, and use materials and pedagogic practices, that are

freely available, for enhancing access, reducing costs, and

improving the quality of education and learning at all levels

(Kanwar, Balasubramanian & Umar 2010).
