Introduction
The chapter you are about to read focuses both on using and creating OER. As a first time OER adopter, you are likely only focused on adopting existing open educational resources for your course. That is perfectly reasonable, and is why we recommend reading only the sections focused on using OER. If you wish to explore further, be our guest. Our goal is to simplify what you need to know now to ensure you have the energy to complete the journey.
