Cultural relativism specifically says that right and wrong are determined by what is accepted in a given culture.

The document discusses policy implications of open educational resources (OER) in Norway. It notes a lack of reuse of digital learning resources due to contextualization, lack of ICT skills, and insufficient sharing culture. A new strategy for digital learning resources will address interoperability, intellectual property rights, and use in higher and adult education. Key policy implications include developing a framework for OERs across sectors; strengthening infrastructure, standards, funding and the evidence base; and incentivizing pedagogical innovation and a sharing culture in higher education.
