Hi All!

 

The Open RN project from Chippewa Valley Technical College and partners is now online! Open RN is one of the 3 grant awardees of the Department of Education’s Open Textbook Pilot Grant and is charged with developing 5 open nursing textbooks and 25 virtual reality scenarios. Highlights of the project include:

 

  • Potential student savings of $1.5 million annually
  • Potential to impact 5,700 students annually
  • Over 200 developers are working on the project
  • First book (Pharmacology) will be released next fall 2020

Sign up on the Open RN web page for project updates or to get involved as a reviewer. Also available through the web page is the Open RN blog and Twitter feed (@OpenRN). If you are attending Open Ed in Phoenix please stop by our poster on Thursday evening. Thanks!
