The movement for Open Educational Resources (OER) has grown exponentially across North American higher education. Recent studies have found that as much as a third of faculty now have some level of awareness of OER and that the trend toward OER adoption is growing.

Whether it is confusion over the meaning of open versus related concepts such as free or digital, or adherence to folk wisdom such as “you get what you pay for,” there are many common misunderstandings about OER.
