Abstract
The Maine laptop initiative provides learners with the hardware and software needed to access OER (open educational resources). To meet learning standards teachers must identify and share these resources in an organized way. A group of educators from k‐12 schools identified existing open educational resources that meet curricular goals. For OER to grow in Maine schools, professional development, sustainability, funding, copyright, and quality control need to be considered.
