Material Detail

Research articles and video clips are being utilized in a Psychology course for undergraduate students by Anne Duran at California State University, Bakersfield. The research articles and clips provide up-to-date research and examples of concepts covered in the class. The main motivation to adopt an open source was to have the students access the most current research and knowledge about SPSS and statistical concepts. Most students access the articles via the CSUB Library’s OneSearch.

The California State University and MERLOT have partnered to showcase how and why faculty have adopted Open Educational Resources (OER) to facilitate equitable access to their students’ course materials. This Faculty Showcase represent Open Educational Practices where faculty are sharing their "know-how" for adopting OER in their courses.
