Affordable Course Materials Initiative
The UTC Library’s Affordable Course Materials Initiative (ACMI) seeks to improve educational outcomes by lowering the cost of course materials for students. We offer support and incentives through mini-grants for authoring and adapting OER and for the adoption of OER or library-licensed materials in your courses.
OER from UTC
Open Educational Resources created by University of Tennessee at Chattanooga faculty are hosted by Pressbooks and/or archived in UTC Scholar. You can also find OER created by other Tennessee faculty in the Tennessee Open Education Hub on OER Commons.
