Abstract

“Share, Remix, Reuse - Legally”, the tagline for creative commons, cogently captures the ethos of peer production Through the rapid growth of open educational resources (OER), peer production has begun to play a major role in how we teach and learn OER are teaching and learning resources that reside in the public domain or have been released under licensing schemes that allow their free use or customization by others They encompass a multiplicity of media types, including lesson plans, animations, videos, scientific data, etc OER can be created by scientific institutions, by university faculty, by K-12 teachers, or by learners Here, we focus on K-12 teachers engaging in peer-production for instructional purposes.
