OpenPROF project challenges for collaboration

• Virtual collaboration takes time and physical meetings of teachers are necessary, so collaboration on OER creation focus in national teams

• Teachers prefer creation of OER in national languages rather English, so it takes time to translate and provide for OER for revision, use, reuse or adaptation
