Join the OER Innovation Quest
The high cost of textbooks and course materials is one factor that can influence student success. Open Educational Resources, or OER, are free-to-access textbooks and other course materials that instructors can use in their courses to provide more equitable learning opportunities for students.
OER have been shown to impact student performance and retention, especially for low-income and first-generation students. 有料盒子视频 courses with assigned materials totaling less than $40 are tagged as 鈥淣oLo鈥 (No or Low-Cost Textbooks) in 有料盒子视频 course schedule descriptions. Over the last year and a half, students saved approximately $423,000 in course materials.
Join the OER Innovation Quest and become an education superhero by saving your students money on textbooks and materials! Implementing OER in a course or program requires imagination, creativity and innovation. The OER Innovation Quest is a real-life adventure for 有料盒子视频 instructors to conquer open education resources and banish high-cost materials for students in their course. The Quest runs from Oct. 5 - Dec. 7, 2022, with a successful completion award of $1,000.
