Open educational resources (OER), open textbooks, and massive open online courses (MOOCs) are changing education. OER include learning materials that are freely available under open licenses allowing reuse, revision, remixing, and redistribution. Open textbooks are openly licensed textbooks available online for free or low cost. MOOCs make university-level courses available to a worldwide online audience for free. However, MOOCs vary in their openness regarding policies, content, pedagogy, and student work. OER, open textbooks, and open pedagogies promote sharing and collaboration in education.

13. Free, immediate, permanent
online access to the full text
of research articles for
anyone, webwide.
There are two roads to OA:
Open Access 1. the "golden road" of OA journal-
publishing , where journals provide OA to their
articles (either by charging the author-institution
for refereeing/publishing outgoing articles instead
of charging the user-institution for accessing
incoming articles, or by simply making their online
edition free for all)
2. the "green road" of OA self-archiving,
where authors provide OA to their own published
articles, by making their own eprints free for all.
