OER Knowledge CloudJournal ArticleUne revue systématique de la recherche sur les ressources éducatives libres (REL) (2017–2025) : tendances, évolutions thématiques et orientations futuresTasir, ZaidatunHarun, JamalludinZainul Rashid, RozainaThis study presents a systematic literature review of research on open educational resources published between 2017 and 2025. Using the PRISMA guidelines, 18 studies were selected and a thematic analysis approach was used to identify research trends, thematic shifts, and future directions. Five themes emerged: open pedagogy and co-creation; integrated pedagogical strategies; empirical achievement and equity; behavioural and identity typologies; and barriers to adoption. The findings indicate a clear shift in OER research from access-oriented discussions towards pedagogically grounded and empirically informed studies. Directions for future research are proposed to support meaningful and sustainable OER implementation.This study presents a systematic literature review of research on open educational resources published between 2017 and 2025.
