The ZTC/OER Committee supports efforts to increase Zero Textbook Cost (ZTC) courses and programs, provides guidance in using Open Educational Resources (OER), and coordinates other aspects of open pedagogy for MJC. We also endeavor to connect ZTC/OER initiatives with institutional and state priorities, and to assist faculty, staff, and students in projects and grants related to ZTC/OER.
