AI-generated Abstract
This study investigates the adoption and impact of Open Educational Resources (OER) and Open Educational Practices (OEP) within higher education and adult learning institutions through a detailed online survey. Results highlight the relationship between institutional policies and the actual usage of OER, indicating that while there is an awareness of its potential for innovation, many educational institutions struggle to implement OER effectively due to various barriers. The findings reveal key factors influencing OER usage, such as institutional support and educators' perceptions, emphasizing the need for a shift towards fostering open educational practices to fully realize the benefits of OER.
