lkfitz's bookmarks 2018-01-24

Summary:

"Students at UNC Chapel Hill are busy starting classes and purchasing yet another stack of expensive textbooks. 

Many students and faculty alike are under informed or unaware of Open Educational Resources (OERs), a fairly new way of writing and personalizing textbook material online, that can help reduce the cost of higher education and help the people of North Carolina access quality education."
