According to UNESCO and Commonwealth of Learning, open educational resources (OER) are teaching, learning and research materials in any medium, digital or otherwise, that are in the public domain or have been released under an open license that permits free access, use, adaptation and redistribution by others. In the context of digital culture, OER create the opportunity for educators, students and even those are not formally tied to an educational institution to be involved in the creative process to develop and adapt educational resources. Governments and educational institutions can train teachers and students for collaborative production of texts, pictures and quality videos. With the opening of the materials on internet,the possibility of continuing education extends to the whole society.
