Yavapai College Published White Paper: Improving Student Success Through the Use of Open Educational Resources

[Megan Crossfield]

Hello OER Community:

Yavapai College recently published a White Paper: Improving Student Success Through the Use of Open Educational Resources. The paper shares the results of a two-year Higher Learning Commission (HLC) quality initiative report focusing on how OER impacted student cost savings, course retention, completion, and persistence rates, next semester enrollment, and student and faculty perceptions of OER.

Thanks, Megan

Thank you Megan for sharing this encouraging report from Yavapai College, the lead for the Arizona Rural Colleges OER Grant from U.S. Department of Education.  It was good to see the consistency with national studies showing that students taking two or more OER courses enrolled in more credits the following semester than students who did not take any OER courses.  I’m impressed with the comprehensive research work completed during the first year of the grant knowing that it will provide important guidance for future work.

Best Regards,

Una
