Pressbooks’ collections hub is a space to find great open textbooks to adopt or adapt for the classroom.
Here you’ll find several collections curated by the Pressbooks librarian to celebrate and share examples of excellence in open education. You’ll also see a featured collection that highlights new and important work. All of these books can be found in Pressbooks Directory, an index of over 5,000 free books and other open educational resources.
Featured collection: Student-Led OER
The Student-Led OER collection features open pedagogy projects that empower students to create their own course material. This approach is aimed at increasing student engagement and investment in the course by giving them a sense of ownership. Examples of Student-Led OER include collections of essays, research projects, design portfolios, personal stories, and more. Such projects can be used to benefit future students and faculty, enhance students’ portfolios, gather useful research data, and include greater intersectionality in course materials.
