The document discusses challenges and benefits of open educational resources. Some challenges include the initial time investment required to find and adapt materials, the need to adapt many resources before using them, combining materials from multiple sources can result in different styles and voices, and open resources may lack quality checks and standardized assessments. However, benefits include learning new teaching strategies, encouraging collaboration, lowering costs for students, promoting lifelong learning, and allowing fully ethical reuse of content.
