Hello CCCOER Community,

On August 26, Inside Higher Ed published an article titled, "Survey: Cost of Course Materials Impacts Student Success," which highlighted how students are making course decisions based on textbook costs rather than academic interests or career goals. However, the article overlooked a key solution to this problem: open educational resources (OER).
The Steering Committee of DOERS has written a response to the article entitled, "With OER, students don't choose between academic goals and financial well-being", which was published on Inside Higher Ed's Opinion page yesterday.

Well done to the Steering Committee of DOERS3!
Heather
