Amazon has been working on a platform for K-12 educators to share and discover Open Educational Resources (OERs) in support or the #GoOpen Initiative started by US Department of Education’s Office of Educational Technology. The platform, called Amazon Inspire (click here), has been in a closed beta state since June 2016, but is now open for anyone to join. Educators may use an existing Amazon.com account or create a new account with their school/work email address.  
From PK Nursery Rhymes to Advanced Placement American Revolution Flashcards and from Biology textbooks (click here) to Ratio and Proportional Relationships.
