Our understanding of Open Educational Resources is grounded in established notions of openly licensed content. We have a specific focus on freedoms afforded by openly licensing content (allowing “The 5 Rs”: retain, reuse, revise, remix, redistribute) and the degree to which design development and distribution accounts for equity and openness.

We think of Open Educational Practices as those educational practices that are concerned with and promote equity and openness. Our understanding of ‘open’ builds on the freedoms associated with “the 5 Rs” of OER, promoting a broader sense of open, emphasising social justice, and developing practices that open up opportunities for those distanced from education.

A quick and easy way to remember what information you need to include when reusing resources is by remembering an acronym: TASL. This stands for T(itle), A(uthor), S(ource), L(icense). TASL tells you what you need to include to ensure that you are appropriately acknowledging the source of the OER that you are using.
