Open Educational Resources Defined
Open Educational Resources (OERs) are any type of educational materials that are in the public domain or introduced with an open license. The nature of these open materials means that anyone can legally and freely copy, use, adapt and re-share them. OERs range from textbooks to curricula, syllabi, lecture notes, assignments, tests, projects, audio, video and animation.

Textbooks and financial aid• 50% of community college students use financial aid
for textbooks• 65% relied on financial aid to cover 100% of their
textbook costs• Students on financial aid pay MORE for textbooks
than students who pay out-of-pocket because of interest payments
• Federal loans are absorbing the rising costs in the present, but students have the debt and interest
Senack, E. and Donoghue, R. (2016). “Covering the Cost: Why we can no longer afford to ignore high textbook prices,” The Student PIRGS.The Institute for College Access and Success, http://ticas.org

How do students view these costs?2014 PIRG national study : 2,039 students
• 65% did not buy the assigned textbook. • Nearly half : textbook costs impact how many or which
classes they took each semester
• Leeward CC survey : 987 students • 55% : chose NOT to purchase a required textbook • 58% : textbook costs determined whether or not they
took a course • 41% : felt they performed poorly without the textbook• 52% : textbook costs affect whether they stay in school• 28% : withdrew from a course because of textbook
