Stipend Awardees worked with the Library and Instructional Designers to develop low / no cost class readings.
Ebook or OER adopters found electronic books or open textbooks (in the Open Textbook Network and LibreTexts) to replace costly textbooks. Access to course materials is mainly provided via Canvas.
OER Creators designed and implemented course materials using LibreTexts or Canvas.
ECO1 - adopted Principles of MicroEconomics 2e from Open Stax
ECO2 - adopted Principles of MacroEconomics 2e from Open Stax
BIO2 - adopted the AP Biology Open Stax textbook and created a private course guide of supplementary materials.
ENG145 - adopted public domain and/or library-subscribed copies of course texts and created a public course guide with supplementary materials.
BUS18 - adopted 2 library-subscribed eBooks and 1 video from Kanopy
ENG195 / HUM234e - adopted online and public domain copies of course texts and streaming films. Also, created a public course guide with supplementary materials.
NUR184T - adopted online articles and book chapters/sections from the Libraries' electronic and print collection. Also used public domain videos, articles and podcasts. Created a public course guide with course materials linked to learning objectives.
SPA1, SPA2, FRE1 - The Language and Culture department committed to adopting zero textbook costs (ZTC) for all of their courses. They remixed LibreText open textbooks and used LibreText's ADAPT system (integrated into Canvas) to create homework assignments.
SPA27A/SPA127A - Another Language and Culture course utilizing LIbreText and ADAPT for course readings/assignments. Will also be used for SPA127B.
BUS190 - Used library-subscribed e-book as well as other library-subscribed materials
ECO 02 - Used the Open Stax Principles of Economics 3rd edition textbook
HUM234e - created a public course guide with course readings and supplementary materials. Did not require the switch to free course materials, but provided the textbooks in the library via 4 hour course reserves so students had a money-saving option.
SOC001 - course textbook is Introduction to Sociology 3e from OpenStax. A printed version of this textbook is on reserve in the library for students who prefer looking at physical books. Approximately 100 students (each semester!) are able to save money on this open access textbook.
