Hm, re-reading your Golden Ratio post I may have to take that back; if you’re measuring learning outcomes, not just generalizable qualities of OER.

The “positive impact” comes because of teacher ability to use data to determine which pieces of open content net the greatest results in student achievement, AND THEN having the liberty to adjust said content accordingly. Content manipulation because it is open source saves vast amounts of time. Teachers don’t have to create an additional lesson, they just augment the existing one. Of course, this is all made easier by having content online in a malleable format to begin with!
