Challenge One Open Educational Resources (OER) is not a universally available resource . Computer access is a major requirement for most of the world’s population. It could contribute to a widening gap between the educated and uneducated.

Challenge Three Quality management, peer review or rating of OER materials does not appear to be part of the CC system.
