Abstract

The open educational resources (OER) repositories facilitate access to knowledge, creating opportunities for academic institutions to share pedagogical materials that can enhance the teaching and learning experience in higher education. They can be reused, translated or modified, and even disseminated through social networks, making these multimedia materials accessible anywhere at any time, without economic and copyright barriers, thereby  encouraging active participation in the democratic education movement.
