I am proud to a part of the effort to make education more accessible for students at College of the Canyons. In the past few years we have switched all of our chemistry textbooks to OER, using the Libretext platform to create custom textbooks for our students. The OER texts combined with the recent introduction of the ADAPT assessment system, allowed us to successfully converted all our introductory chemistry sections to ZTC. We are now able to tailor our instruction materials to our students, while saving them money at the same time.
