Open Educational Resources

Open Educational Resources

Open educational resources are free resources developed or adopted by instructors with the focus on providing students with no cost or low cost textbooks to enhance equitable access to learning. 

Further, there are free shareable resources for instructors to develop and change to fit the needs of their courses.

Creative Commons is a non-profit organization that works on a global scale to help overcome legal challenges regarding copyright and the sharing of information. They do this by providing various Creative Commons licenses which are free of charge and public domain tools that give people a way to freely share their creative and academic works while ensuring proper attribution and allowing others to copy, distribute, and make use of those works. Creative Commons does not work in lieu of copyright laws, but works within those laws. The Creative Commons licenses are simple to use, simple to obtain, and a great way to make sure that the creative and academic works you produce are fit for use by students and colleagues alike.

I love taking care of people. Knowing that I have made a difference in a person's life or just made their day a little bit warms my heart.

I was able to learn different aspects of many different specialties such as OB, OR, geriatrics, and mental health. It gave me more of an idea which specialties I liked, and which ones I did not.
