We are proud to report that the Fall 2020 term shows the biggest increase in open textbook adoptions since 2013 (the first year that OER data was recorded at Douglas College). To illustrate,

  • In 2013, we had 6 course adoptions of open textbooks, impacting 352 students for a savings of $50,700.
  • In Fall 2020, we had 91 adoptions, impacting 2,325 students for a savings of $293,203.

Here are those Fall 2020 specific course sections along with their respective instructors. We are so grateful to them for adapting their courses to OER. As evidenced above, they really are making a substantial difference to our students.
