Textbook Costs & Digital Learning Resources Workgroup

Examine VCCS administrative practices and policies that unnecessarily add to the cost of academic textbooks

Explore how networked digital technology can best be leveraged to lower the overall cost of textbooks, including using open educational resources

Investigate ways which currently licensed electronic resources can be used in electronic "course packs," as a substitute for text books, or for the supplementary material often required for a course of study

Identify opportunities for interested VCCS faculty to explore using openly licensed resources in their courses

Examine the current relevance of printed textbooks in an age of interactive, web-based content, digital publishing, and collaborative social networks

Recommend strategies and policies for creating an institutional culture that embraces and practices openness, transparency, collaboration, and sharing
