4 steps to adopting OER - Sarah Martin, Smart Brief

Open educational resources present enormous opportunities to enhance teaching and learning. One of the primary draws, of course, is that they’re free.

One of the main criticisms of OER is the poor quality of some of resources. But I have had the same issue with traditional curricula.
