Which OER Bio textbooks and lab manuals are used by your instructors? On Wed, Jul 17, 2019 at 8:56 AM Jessica Norman <jessica.norman(a)sait.ca> wrote:
Hi All,
My intro Bio and Chem instructors are interested in OER. It’s been fairly easy to locate textbooks and some lab manuals for them to review. However, they are also interested in a hybrid or online version of the course and were wondering if there were open licensed online lab simulations in these areas? A Google search brings up lots of results but I’m unsure which are complete, high quality content, so any feedback on what your faculty are using (OER, low cost, or traditional access model) would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jessica
