This work constitutes a collection of guidance documents on all aspects of Open Educational Resources (OER) prepared by the STEM project teams from a number of Higher Education Academy/JISC OER pilot projects. These projects ran from May 2009 to April 2010, and this guidance is based on the teams' combined experiences working with practising academics over that time, to explore the issues surrounding OER production and release.
Though prepared by STEM subject centres, we believe the information here is suitable for all disciplines.
