OER

Open educational resources are resources available to anyone online that present learning material.  This material maybe lesson plans, books, quizzes, and others.  For the learner this tool is very useful because it allows the student to get a different approach to what they are learning.  This can greatly improve the information they take in and they are more likely going to be able to store the information in their long term memory.  For the teacher this tool is amazing!  They can literally find their lesson plans, activities, quizzes, syllabi, and anything they could possibly need in order to teach a class. There is also an opportunity for teachers to make comments on other teacher's lesson.  This is very helpful in bettering the material.  I think this tool is great and I am definitely going to be using it within my classroom.
