Students save $9M using digital textbooks at Washtenaw Community College - Samuel Dodge, Mlive

The Open Education Resources (OER) program saves hundreds of dollars per student by making official classroom textbooks available fully online, according to a WCC release. The program has applied to 47 of the college’s courses since fall 2017, including a number of required classes needed to earn a business certificate, the release states. Soon, the zero-cost textbook approach will apply to classes needed for a handful of associate degrees.
