Hello all,

I have a Math faculty member interested in MyMathLab & WebAssign alternatives. I sent her information about MyOpenMath and WebWork and she is looking into them. In the meantime, she would like to know specific colleges that are using these programs. Also, are there any other OER or low cost alternatives to MyMathLab & WebAssign?

Thanks!

Hi Lori,

We are using MOM in all of our essential math courses at American River College and Math Ideas courses. We've also created three courses including an intermediate algebra course that matches the curriculum of one of the most popular intermediate algebra texts, Marge Lial, also written by a former ARC mathematics professor.

The intermediate algebra course is not yet a template course, but is available to all who ask.

A few Math faculty at HCC are using WeBWorK.  The is some cost for the IT support needed.  Do not know the details.  Contact me if more info is desired.

Lori,


In your area, Santiago Canyon College, Santa Ana College and Cerritos College are using MyOpenMath significantly. Using WebAssign with an OER textbook could help ease the transition for faculty already familiar with it. If it helps, I'd be happy to talk by phone with Math faculty at OCC about our experience with MyOpenMath.

Thank you, Roy! This is extremely helpful. I may take you up on that offer!
