abstract:

This study compared course passing and completion rates of undergraduate students to determine if there was any relationship between use of open educational resources (OER) and these two outcomes. Students who took OER courses and faculty who taught with OER shared their perceptions of the impact of such resources on learning outcomes and teaching methods.

The quantitative analysis revealed that using OER had a positive impact on course passing rates (7 percent increase) and completion rates (10 percent increase) for all students. The qualitative analysis revealed the student perception that OER had some positive impact on their course participation and ability to pass, but less influence on course completion. Faculty perceived little to no increase in passing or completion rates. As a result of OER, students and faculty observed a significant increase in student engagement, and all faculty reported an evolution in pedagogical approaches.

摘要：

本研究比较了本科生的课程通过率和完成率，以确定开放教育资源 (OER) 的使用与这两种结果之间是否存在任何关系。参加开放教育资源课程的学生和使用开放教育资源教学的教师分享了他们对此类资源对学习成果和教学方法影响的看法。

定量分析显示，使用开放教育资源对所有学生的课程通过率（提高 7%）和完成率（提高 10%）产生积极影响。定性分析显示，学生认为开放教育资源对其课程参与和通过能力有一些积极影响，但对课程完成的影响较小。教师们认为通过率或完成率几乎没有增加。由于开放教育资源，学生和教师观察到学生参与度显着提高，所有教师都报告了教学方法的演变。
