- Abstract
Learn how to re-mix and Open Educational Resource (OER) textbook to include local and cultural content. Adding cultural and local content makes a textbook more accessible to students. Students engage better with material to which they can relate more personally. This material is part of a capstone project research guide, for the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC) Open Education Leadership program which the presenter completed in the Spring of 2020.
