Bridges introduces students to a wide range of concepts, institutions, histories, and artifacts of United States college and university life. After discussing these items in easy-to-scan, concise, nuance-free prose, this textbook then offers useful lists, templates for writing and speaking in different discourses and situations, thought-provoking questions and activities for self-study and for classroom work, and pertinent hyperlinks for further information. Bridges is designed to help first-generation, first-year, English language learners, and/or culturally unfamiliarized students more fully and successfully explore their educational environments. By using this book, students will be better prepared for the academic and social challenges of successfully undertaking higher education in English.

This course provides knowledge and skills in supporting STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) infusion throughout Out-of-School (OST) environments. Educators learn to support STEM skill development through active, engaging, and fun approaches to each topic, while aligning to the MA-CF and engaging best practices such as ULD and TC/PBL.

This is designed to be used in any event in which someone is looking for resources on brutalist architecture. 

While many study skills, composition and reading skills texts separate these activities into discrete skills to be learned separately, this books recognizes that these skills are interconnected. A student who struggles with the reading will have a hard time writing about it or discussing it. A student who has inadequate strategies for listening to lectures will struggle to see the connections between the lecture and the reading. Therefore, this book moves away from the “skills and drills” texts that are so common in reading and writing textbooks. Instead, this book features process and provides opportunities for students (and instructors) to think about the best ways to approach academic tasks. For example, a “skills and drills” oriented book might teach students how to take Cornell Notes and use graphic organizers, but it does not provide any information for students that would allow them to decide when it would be best to choose one note taking method over the other. This book’s main focus is helping students develop that sort of judgement.

Long Description:
Academic integrity is one of the fundamental values to higher education institutions that must be upheld by its members. We created an innovative system to teach the six core values of academic integrity; to acknowledge the successful completion of the six modules, learners receive a digital badge they can display on various social media platforms. The open access IntegrityMatters app is designed for both iOS and Android mobile systems and is integrated with the CanCred digital badging system. A pilot study assessed the system efficacy and overall, the majority of learners found the system to be easy to use.

Archived session from the 2023 Arizona Regional OER Conference. Session Title: Building Resources, Community, and Collaboration Across Texas Through the Statewide Repository, OERTXThis resource includes the session abstract, presenters, PPT, and recording. 

This is an activity where students create and label a brain using air dry modeling clay.  It is a good first or second day activity for community building and can replace the world's most boring neuroanatomy lecture.  Also, it provides students with a 3D study tool at home. You will want to provide some guidance as to size (example template in Lesson Instructions) and areas of interest for your course.  I provide appropriately sized labels (example in Lesson Instruction) that I have printed on a 8.5x11 inch sticker that they can choose to cut out and use or not.  I generally have a couple of labels that occupy the same space (e.g. BA 44 and Broca's area) to highlight different labeling systems.Most students often find this activity very engaging and many comment that it reduces their anxiety about jargon in neuroanatomy.  In my experience, there is a varied level of detail and enthusiasm for the project, but it meets the learning objectives in a more entertaining way than simply reading or listening.

In this module we will discuss all built-in accessibility features in different operating systems.

Reports are integral part especially of any database-driven application. Data, regardless of volume, need to be processed and retrieved from a variety of sources and later presented to the desired users in various forms. Out of these reports, appropriate actions are normally carried out by the respective users.

This resource introduces the Reporting Services which is one of the Business Intelligence projects under the umbrella of SQL Server technologies. It walks you through the creation, deployment and subscription of server-side report whose deployment and data-driven subscription are made possible through SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS).
