Open Educational Resources

Achieve.org has developed eight OER rubrics as well as an evaluation tool to help users determine the degree of alignment of OER to the Common Core State Standards, and aspects of quality of OER.

"The BCOEL working group has created a useful rubric for instructors, librarians, educational technologists, and students and anyone else using open educational resources (OER) to evaluate the quality of the OER collections available to them.
By evaluating some criteria such as authority, audience, subject coverage, and more, you can assess an open educational resource repository to identify opportunities to improve the open resources available to your institution."
