This presentation offers a comprehensive overview of Open Educational Resources (OER), covering their definition, historical evolution, and the benefits and challenges associated with their use over time. The Wiley 5Rs framework—Retain, Reuse, Revise, Remix, and Redistribute—will be introduced to illustrate the various levels of OER adoption and customization to enhance teaching and learning. The discussion will address specific challenges encountered in English Language Teaching (ELT) when using OER, underscoring the need for increased awareness and structured support systems. Insights from the author's dissertation on transitioning to OER with institutional support will be presented, highlighting key aspects such as institutional backing, backward mapping design, student feedback, Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and collaborative efforts. The session will provide guidance on effectively searching for and locating relevant OER, including tips on utilizing OER repositories and search engines. Evaluation criteria and tools for assessing the quality and relevance of OER will be outlined, accompanied by a rubric for assessment. The session will conclude with links to valuable OER for ELT and an open forum for participants to share their thoughts, ask questions, and discuss the adoption and implementation of OER in their own contexts.
