OEP?“Open Educational Practices (OEP) are the use of open

educational resources with the aim to improve the quality ofeducational processes and innovate educational environments.”

(Ehlers & Conole, 2010)


OEP?We think of Open Educational Practices as those educational

practices that are concerned with and promote equity andopenness. Our understanding of ‘open’ builds on the freedoms

associated with ‘the 5 Rs’ of OER, promoting a broader sense ofopen, emphasising social justice, and developing practices that

open up opportunities for those distanced from education.

(OEPs, 2016)
