Abstract

In the current digital environment, a wide variety of resources have emerged to support the teaching and learning processes. This research focuses on Open Educational Resources (OER), a technological innovation that, for its effective implementation within educational institutions, requires the active participation of teachers. The main objective of this research was to identify and solve some of the challenges faced by high school mathematics and physics teachers when incorporating OER into their teaching practice. To achieve this, an Open Educational Resources Workshop was designed and implemented. It was a qualitative research study that employs a Participatory-Action-Research methodology in which it was possible to identify repositories and platforms used by participating teachers. This process led to a change in the perception of the factor “Time to find, review, and select OER”. The research involved the participation of 20 teachers with experience in teaching mathematics and physics at the high school level, in both urban and regional contexts, with at least one year of experience. This work contributes to the knowledge about the incorporation of OER into high school teaching practice in a Mexican context. In addition, it allows the identification of variations in the 5R model, which provides a framework for the implementation of OER in similar educational contexts.
