Episode Synopsis

“As a student, I struggled at times going to the bookstore at the start of the semester and plopping down hundreds and hundreds of dollars for books - at the end, I sell back at one-tenth the price. As a teacher, that concerns me,” said Dr. Stewart Gardner.
In this episode, Dr. Joelle Spotswood interviews Dr. Gardner from the Department of Biological Sciences at Emporia State University. He shares his experience with using both traditional textbooks and open educational resources and why he prefers one over the other.
