Open Textbook Workshop for UHM Faculty
March 14, 10:00am - 12:00pm
Mānoa Campus, Hamilton 306
Concerned about the impact of high textbook costs on your students? Explore possible open textbook solutions by attending a two-hour Open Textbook workshop and writing a short textbook review. Receive a $200 stipend for your efforts!
The workshop will be led by John Hilton III, assistant professor, Brigham Young University and Sarah Cohen, managing director of the Open Textbook Network.
Open textbooks can help alleviate the burden of textbook costs for students and provide faculty with content that can be customized for their course. Open textbooks are full, real textbooks, used by many faculty across the country, and licensed to be freely used, edited, and distributed.
Capacity is limited and open textbooks are not available for all subjects. Preference will be based on textbook subject area availability.
