Where CGCC Startedwith OER
• Some faculty use earlier editions of textbooks• On-Campus Presentation of OER Adoption• Faculty In-Service Seminars on OER• Library took on the Project Lead
Constant Communication with Shareholders
• Faculty – including Dept. Chairs• Administration• Students – Student Gov.• Student Services – Advising, etc.• Foundation Board – Funding • Bookstore
“Text books have been so expensive that I decided to not even purchase the text for a couple of my classes.” “I was still able to take the class, and pass each class by using online resources. I still learned a lot in these courses and saved a lot of money.”
“I am prepared with my Student Government team and students to work towards getting faculty to adopt more open education resources here at CGCC.”
Margaret, CGCC Student Life President
