Affordable biology textbook saves CSU students money, makes learning engaging. Tanya Dewey is presented with the Open Educator Award by Meg Brown-Sica, associate dean of research support and community engagement at the CSU Libraries. Tanya Dewey, an assistant professor of biology and associate chair of undergraduate studies at Colorado State University, seeks to provide access to essential resources at an affordable price and change how students learn the foundations of biology. By creating more dynamic labs and resources for students, Dewey hopes to make learning more engaging and affordable. That’s why she was presented with the CSU Libraries’ Open Educator Award, which acknowledges one teacher who actively fosters a culture of leveraging free academic resources and sharing knowledge.
