The Colorado Commission on Higher Education has awarded $1 million to 26 Open Educational Resources (OER) projects, including two at the University of Northern Colorado. These projects aim to create high-quality teaching and learning materials at no cost to Colorado students. The OER grant program, now in its sixth year, has saved Colorado students over $31.5 million on textbook costs and transformed more than 1,600 courses to no-cost options. The grants support various initiatives, including zero textbook degree development, collaborative partnerships and institutional general incentive funds.
