0.0 stars

As inclusive access programs and other affordable course material initiatives continue to grow across the higher education landscape, open education advocates will benefit from being able to distinguish their work from other, related initiatives.

This site has been created to help those supporting open and affordable course material programs better articulate the differences between these course material types and the unique benefits of each.
