ALL OF THESE NEW WAYS OF LEARNING
Textbook Costs & Digital
Learning Resources Workgroup
Examine VCCS administrative practices and policies that unnecessarily add to the cost of
academic textbooks

Explore how networked digital technology can best be leveraged to lower the overall cost
of textbooks, including using open educational resources

Investigate ways which currently licensed electronic resources can be used in electronic
"course packs," as a substitute for text books, or for the supplementary material often
required for a course of study

Identify opportunities for interested VCCS faculty to explore using openly licensed
resources in their courses

Examine the current relevance of printed textbooks in an age of interactive, web-based
content, digital publishing, and collaborative social networks

Recommend strategies and policies for creating an institutional culture that embraces and
practices openness, transparency, collaboration, and sharing
