Scenario 3 – Produce an OER

To produce an OER you should decide what tools or electronic resources to use, as well as the formats (multimedia, text, etc.). In any case you should decide under what type of licence to support the openness of the content produced - a Creative Commons Licences other or similar licence. This is the key aspect to transform the resource created in an open educational resource. You can find more information about Licences in the Training Material 2: ICT tools to develop and adapt OER where you can learn about this subject.
