Below are some great reasons to consider using Pressbooks with your students!
Are you tired of asking your students to spend money each semester on expensive textbooks? Are you tired of having no input in the creation of course content? Do you wish that you could edit your textbooks? Would you like to find or create reading assignments that are fun, engaging, and interactive? With Pressbooks and H5P, you can create high-quality, editable textbooks with formative assessment activities built right in. Using H5P and pressbooks will also allow you to integrate Open Education Resources (OER) into your course.
What Are Open Educational Resources (OERs)?
“Open Educational Resources are learning, teaching and research materials in any format and medium that reside in the public domain or are under copyright that have been released under an open license, that permit no-cost access, re-use, re-purpose, adaptation and redistribution by others.” (UNESCO, 2022, para. 1)
