Provost Bruce is funding an OER (Open Educational Resources) program to save students money on textbooks. This program continues last year’s TBR grant work, which saved students over $162,000 in Spring 2022. This OER program offers stipends to selected faculty to transition their courses from traditional textbooks to zero-cost course materials. This program will help increase equity in access to quality, zero-cost educational materials. Faculty interested in receiving OER training and a stipend must submit an application proposal by Aug. 31, 2022.
