Hi Valerie and Jim, You will find further information on the components of a definition for OER definition here <http://wikieducator.org/Educators_care/Defining_OER>.
The OER Foundation and the WikiEducator community subscribe to free cultural works<http://wikieducator.org/The_right_license/Free_cultural_works>approved licenses as a matter of policy. The use of open and free file formats is important because technology should not be used to restrict users in implementing the 4Rs. Khan Academy videos use the non-commercial restriction, and for this reason we are unable to embed these videos in WikiEducator. (It is however possible to provide an external link to the resource.)
