The Simon Fraser Student Society (SFSS) recently launched a new petition to support the use of Open Educational Resources (OER) and increase textbook affordability for students. The SFSS proposed the use of OER, including open textbooks, multimedia, and assessment tools, as a solution to rising educational costs. “We incorporated the student responses in the textbook statistics from the SFU bookstore, and then we talked about how we can alleviate financial burdens attributed to these costs,” Liu said.
