Material Detail

These open materials are used in an undergraduate Literature and Writing Studies course taught by Martha Stoddard Holmes at Cal State San Marcos. The open materials provide a range of readings in the humanities, arts, and behavioral/social sciences that complement films and videos available to students through library reserve/video on demand. The main motivation to adopt a open materials was concern for both student costs and student intellectual flourishing. It would be impossible to access this range and currency of materials except in a custom textbook. Most students access the open materials through Canvas, many of them on their smartphones.
