CELT - Workshop: Save Students Money: Adopt an Affordable Textbook for Your Course

09-19-2017 12:10 PM

Twenty-four percent of students in a recent study reported that they were forced to drop courses and even majors due to high textbook costs. Open Educational Resources (OER) offer one possible solution to this problem. Curtis Brundy and Abbey Elder, ISU Library, join John Wierson, University Book Store, and CELT's Darrin Jones to help you decide how to best use OER in your course.

Librarians will explain what OER are and how they can be used, John will share how UBS supports this change, and then Darrin will discuss how to integrate OER into your Canvas course for maximal learning.
