A passive cool house uses shading, insulation, and ventilation techniques to stay naturally cool without active cooling systems. It has wide roof eaves and window ledges for shading, magnesium oxide roof and wall insulation, casement windows and screened doors for cross ventilation, and attic ventilation to prevent overheating. These passive design strategies help the house rely less on air conditioning than a conventional home.

The document discusses the rising cost of textbooks and its negative impact on students. It notes that textbook prices have increased 812% since 1978, more than inflation or other costs like tuition. This has led to many students not being able to afford required textbooks. Open educational resources (OER) are presented as a solution to make education more affordable and effective. Tidewater Community College is highlighted for creating the first associate degree based entirely on OER. Research from Lumen Learning is cited showing improved student performance and passing rates when OER replaced traditional textbooks. The document concludes by suggesting ways Penn State could support OER adoption, like making sharing easy, considering OER before traditional materials, and supporting faculty development of OER.
