Salt Lake Community College honored for use of free online resources in math curriculum - Marjorie Cortez, Deseret News

Salt Lake Community College's initiative that uses free online educational resources in its math curriculum is getting national attention. The approach cuts students' textbook costs and ensures they are ready to go the first day of class. SLCC's math department was recently awarded the Digital Learning Innovation award by the Online Learning Consortium during the group's conference in Florida. The award recognized both SLCC’s math department and the college’s Faculty Development and Educational Initiatives office's use of open educational resources or OER, which can be downloaded for free, edited and shared. https://www.deseretnews.com/article/900048726/salt-lake-community-college-honored-for-use-of-free-online-resources-in-math-curriculum.html
