We don’t have ZTC books listed at bookstore. Not sure our classes or department are being counted in these numbers.
Ruben Gomez

How do these numbers compare to textbook rentals?
Pilar Hernandez
04:56:37
Oh. Ok.
Pilar Hernandez
04:56:41
Then we were counted.
Pilar Hernandez
04:56:44
Yes

Hopefully the bookstore does have a note in their system that indicates the textbooks are free and students should find out about textbooks from the instructor
Jim Julius (he/him)
04:57:47
(It is important that faculty let the bookstore know this, rather than not communicating anything at all about textbooks)

And even if e-book can be purchased, the license may be super expensive or limiting in how many students can access it at the same time

Or that it’s not a negative impact to grades/outcomes - but still with the positive impact upon students of saving the money and opening the access.

It’s so cool that an AF from here who was involved at the start of the process is now also a state leader as a full time ECE faculty at College of the Canyons
Laura (she/her) Paciorek

Yes, Jim. We still talk regularly, too!
Lauren McFall

It's been so great being a part of the OER journey in child development. I feel like it's brought a lot of the faculty together throughout the state, too.
