Can AI unlock open education resources for education? Inside the Jisc-Sylla pilot - Inspiring learning

"Four universities have joined a pilot programme led by Jisc and Sylla to explore how open educational resources (OER) can support more inclusive, affordable and personalised learning.  

Building on Coventry University’s success in replacing costly textbooks with open alternatives, the ten-week pilot is testing Sylla’s impact across a broader range of institutions.  

Sylla is a tech company helping libraries and academics discover and use OER and open access (OA) content. Using AI, Sylla maps open materials at a granular level to textbooks, reading lists, modules, learning outcomes and entire curricula – making it easier to create flexible learning experiences without the high costs of traditional resources."
