2012 Faculty Survey Results
Few institutions or departments consider authoring OER in promotion and tenure decisions.
Breaking OER into small units may increase usefulness
Only 6% of those surveyed reported having used all or a part of an open textbook.
Almost three-quarters had heard of open textbooks and courseware.
The most important factors in evaluating textbooks are how well they address course objectives, accuracy, currency, and consistency.
