Descripción:Access to open educational resources provides an opportunity to broaden the availability of materials for teaching and learning, particularly in the area of measurement in primary education. This article describes the process of designing, developing, and validating an interactive digital book on measurement for sixth-grade primary school students in Costa Rica. The resource was developed following the MEDEREDA methodology for creating digital educational resources through the stages of analysis, search and selection, planning, technical and human support, design, production, validation, and implementation. The book integrates contextualized situations, worked examples, audiovisual materials, interactive applications, and exercises with detailed solutions. The evaluation conducted by five practicing primary school teachers was preliminary and formative in nature and yielded predominantly favorable results: no responses were recorded in the “Poor” or “Very poor” categories, and only two of the fourteen aspects evaluated received a “Fair” rating. The observations provided led to adjustments in the organization of the content, images, audiovisual resources, and contextualization before the final version of the resource was completed.
