Personal impact:
“I am concerned about the affordability and accessibility of textbooks for undergraduate students, having struggled to manage these costs when I was a student myself. As a matter of equity, I think it is important to minimize financial barriers to success — at least the ones I can control.”
Offering OER:
“I strive to offer high-quality resources for students, while keeping costs down, and OER allows me to do so. Math courses are hard enough without having to worry about how you are going to afford your textbooks!”
