6300 OER Conversion
This collaboration process was very insightful. It had me step out of my comfort zone to explore new activities of teaching. I was very much reliant on a concrete textbook.

It can be daunting to know that Intro is the entrance to the criminal justice major but I look forward to seeing how the student respond not having the expense of an expensive textbook. I hope this lessens stress and the OER process increases engagement and participation.
