Initiatives and actions at Oregon Tech in regards to open education, OER, and textbook affordability

Creating and Modifying

If you don't find OER that is useful for you, you might consider modifying a current OER to meet your needs or authoring a completely new work. Below are some guides to help.

Pressbooks 

Do you want to write your own ebook, book chapter, study guide, lab manual, or other materials? Open Oregon has provided Oregon Tech with access to an online publishing platform called Pressbooks which will help you format and publish your materials on the web (or publish your materials privately). You can even use Pressbooks to create interactive H5P elements to include in your text, such as multiple choice questions or interactive images. Contact cate.guenther@oit.edu if you are interested in getting access to Pressbooks.
