OE Week Day 3: Announcing Our Spring 2021 Textbook Affordability Grants!
Textbook Affordability Grants are offered through the Michael Schwartz Library to encourage and support the creation or compilation of low-or no-cost course materials. Faculty whose projects are selected will receive a $1,000 grant to revise or remix an existing open textbook. Appropriate support to find, adopt, or adapt an existing open educational textbook or other education resources to replace a traditional, high-cost textbook will be provided by the Michael Schwartz Library, the Center for eLearning, the Center for Instructional Technology and Distance Learning, and the Center for Faculty Excellence. Five awards are available.
Apply for a Textbook Affordability Grant by June 1st!
