Faculty Workshop - Affordable Learning & OER

Faculty Workshop - Affordable Learning & OER Online

Affordable Learning Initiatives look to reduce costs for students by substituting low-cost or no-cost resources in place of high-price commercial textbooks. Examples include:

  • Using existing Open Educational Resources (OER) for course instruction and/or modifying/enhancing existing resources.
  • Creating OER that can be used by students you are teaching or by other instructors or scholars.
  • Using library-licensed materials, including books, eBooks, and electronic journal and magazine articles for course instruction, or making use of library physical and electronic reserves. These materials have already been purchased by libraries or institutions, but are available at no additional cost to students.

This CIA faculty only workshop will review the options for faculty and help find ebooks, streaming videos, articles, and OERs (including grant funding!) that you can use to help reduce the cost of learning for your students, while increasing success and equity.
