Online published on 22 December, 2023. Abstract E-learning enables more efficient learning at a lower cost, as well as expanded global access to learning and explicit accountability for all learning participants. The use of open educational resources (OER) in modern Indian higher education is becoming more important for both developed and developing countries to improve the quality of education. This will also help us fulfill the NEP 2020 prophecy, which says that all Indian languages and literature, which contain a rich reservoir of our soil, will improve the education system. The issue is getting different stakeholders to understand the many open educational resources that are freely available to them. Both students and teachers must make the best use of it. The goal of open educational resources (OER) is to make this information freely available, thereby increasing educational opportunities for previously underserved groups of society and thus equalizing access. The study investigates the advantages and characteristics associated with open pedagogy, the strategic implementation of OER, and the prospects of OER. It also discusses recommendations made to address these concerns. Top Keywords OER, Open Education, Education Reforms, Higher Education, Libraries and OERs: A Model of OER and How to Use OER. Top |
