Investigating the Teachers’Attitude Regarding open Educational Resources (OER) at Sukhothai Thamathirat Open University, Thailand | Chapter 6 | Research Highlights in Language, Literature and Education Vol. 1

 In order to continue the cycle of collaboration and continuous improvement, the Open Educational Resource (OER) culture encourages teachers to include existing OER, change them, and share them with others. Finding the factors that affect OER adoption may be aided by understanding teachers' opinions about OER use and comparing data across schools. The main objective of this research is to ascertain how Thai university Sukhothai Thamathirat Open University (STOU) lecturers feel about open educational resources (OER). A five-point scale with the options strongly disagree to greatly agree was used to gauge the instructors' attitudes about open educational resources (OER) in this study. Based on the scale, it is possible to identify OER adaptation, use, and sharing. The STOU professors received the questionnaire. 32 STOU respondents were included in the analysis. Information was gathered via an online form. Statistical techniques were used to analyse the data. Frequency measurements were used to represent demographic and other data in addition to the chi-square test. The analysis was performed using SPSS. Teachers in Thailand are urged to share OER for both their own personal and professional growth. The vast majority of them are motivated to share and contribute to OER in order to advance ideas in a knowledge society, which is an interesting observation.
