In addition to saving #students $$$, #OER addresses “the urgent issue of #basicneeds… grants equal #access… helps #retention & course #completion… [and] affords [faculty] the freedom to create culturally relevant & community-based #learningmaterials...”

“Perhaps the question of #OER adoption should not be solely focused on individual #faculty usage, but on the institutional supports put in place for faculty… in pursuit of innovative #teaching methodologies.”

While much of our attention has been directed toward Gov. Newsom’s historic investment of $115 million in the Zero-Textbook-Cost degree program, there have been equally impactful projects across our other initiatives over the past year. hubs.li/Q013Lsd_0

In one semester @CSUCI saved students $1.8 million on textbook costs with #OER. We are thrilled to see #SparkGrant-supported projects like @CAopenEd help spread successes like this across the state!
