Letter from the Editor
In a similar model-based study , Shouhong Wang ’ s Adoption and Adaptation of Open Educational Resources : Models of Decision-Making and Action Planning provides the OER community with valuable information by focusing on the necessary decisions that should be considered as prerequisites toward appropriately planning OER adoption and adaptation .
OER and OEP . The True and False promise of Open Educational Resources , or , How Open Educational Resources are Condemned to Wither without Open Pedagogy , by Hamish F . Lutris and Nicolas P . Simon ,
The articles in this issue are sure to impress . The articles not only represent conversations on current work within the OER community , but they are also an indicator that these authors are exploring different trajectories for OER research , and to spark OER awareness , growth , and evolution . I sincerely thank these passionate and generous authors for continuing to advance OER knowledge and awareness by sharing their academic scholarship with our IJOER readers .
I would also like to thank the IJOER & Beyond moderators , peer reviewers , and copyeditors whose labor went into producing IJOER and who should not go unrecognized for this collective collaboration .
As always , stay with us and expect more .
