Thomas Edison State University (TESU) has saved students more than $1.6 million this year with Zero Textbook Cost (ZTC) courses. ZTC courses harness Open Educational Resources (OER) and other no-cost alternatives to replace standard textbooks. OER materials reside in the public domain – or are openly licensed – and encompass a rich array of readings, articles, case studies and multimedia components like videos and podcasts that are integrated into the online courses.
