This document discusses a study on K-12 teachers' views of how open educational resources (OER) impact students. The study found that OER can improve student performance and satisfaction by increasing access to educational materials. Teachers reported that OER allow for more student-centered learning approaches like flipped learning, where students engage with content online and class time is used for active learning. OER also enable new forms of teaching and learning like having students create their own lessons and online content. Teachers found that OER increase student engagement and motivation by allowing them to customize lessons and see their work published online.

Keyword Hypothesis Performance OER improve student performance/satisfaction Openness People use OER differently from other online materials Access OER widen participation in education Retention OER can help at-risk learners to finish their studies Reflection OER use leads educators to reflect on their practice Finance OER adoption brings financial benefits for students/institutions Indicators Informal learners use a variety of indicators when selecting OER Support Informal learners develop their own forms of study support Transition OER support informal learners in moving to formal study Policy OER use encourages institutions to change their policies Assessment Informal assessments motivate learners using OER

- 19. Case study 1 “Kids can get mad at me for my content because they are like ‘Look at how awful this is’ and I’m like “Perfect, let’s fix it’ (…) If I just took some other course and said ‘Let’s all take this course and make it better’ and I put no effort into it myself, that would be probably a lot more frustrating”
- 20. Case study 2 “Two weeks ago, I had the chance to help out one of our teachers as she worked with some 4th graders on math. Instead of “teaching” the students, she had each student design a lesson they could teach to the world. They designed their presentation and used a screen capture program (…) to record their session. We then posted the video to YouTube and now these 10 year olds are teaching the world math lessons. It has been motivating for these students to see how many people watch their videos. It has also helped them to understand the topic that they presented on”. http://jonbergmann.com/students-as-creators-of-content/
- 21. Case study 3 “Even though I knew we had to read Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, I could not send these kids home with Chaucer (…) Over the course of an entire semester all the kids turned in on average 82% of their homework, which is significant for me because that made me feel that what I was asking them to do at home, (…) they saw the meaning in doing that. That to me was a time when I was able to use free online resources for the best interests of my students.”
- 22. What I’m thinking… OER enable new ways of teaching and learning. Success in flipped learning is measured in terms of student engagement and motivation. Teachers’ open practices can help student engagement and motivation.
