New Student PIRGs Study
•

•

65% of students decided against
buying a textbook because it was
too expensive, 94% of these
students were concerned it would
impact their grades
Almost half said textbook costs
impact how many/which classes
they took

@SPARC_NA
New Student PIRGs Study
•

82% said they would do significantly
better in a course if the textbook
was free online and the print copy
was optional (i.e. open textbooks)

Why Work With Students?
•
•
•

Students are ultimately the
beneficiaries of OER
Students are effective messengers
We need an army

Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition

www.sparc.arl.org

@SPARC_NA
Tips: Working With Students
1. Focus on affordability.
Generally speaking, students are interested in OER
for one thing, and one thing only – cheaper
textbooks. The key to attracting and motivating
students is to present OER as a solution.

Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition

www.sparc.arl.org

@SPARC_NA
Tips: Working With Students
2. Explain why OER is a solution.
Students want lower costs next semester, not next
decade. They tend to fight hardest for immediate
solutions: renting, used books, reserve copies, etc.
To gain student support, it is important to provide
context for why OER is a solution worth fighting for.

Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition

www.sparc.arl.org

@SPARC_NA
Tips: Working With Students
3. Don’t overcomplicate things.
Most students don’t understand open licensing –
and that’s OK. Students can appreciate and
advocate for OER as a solution without knowing the
ins and outs of the different licenses, etc – all they
need is a practical understanding (stay tuned).

Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition

www.sparc.arl.org

@SPARC_NA
Tips: Working With Students
4. Start with “Open textbooks”
“OER” and “educational resources” are foreign
terms to students. It’s best to focus on the most
familiar form of OER, “open textbooks.”

Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition

www.sparc.arl.org

@SPARC_NA
Explaining OER to Students
What are open textbooks?
1.

Comparable: like any other text – similar
material and format, sold in the bookstore

2.

Affordable: low-cost in print and digital form
– read free online, download printable PDF
and/or buy a hard copy for $20-40.

3.

Flexible: professors can legally create their
own version of the textbook by removing
unwanted sections and adding new material.
Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition

www.sparc.arl.org

@SPARC_NA
Explaining OER to Students
Why support open textbooks?
1.

Savings: professors who adopt open
textbooks save students 80% on average,
that’s $10,000 for the typical 100-student
class.

2.

3.

Change: major publishers have a stranglehold
on the market, and the best way to change
that is to increase competition with OER
Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition

www.sparc.arl.org

@SPARC_NA
Explaining OER to Students
Why take action now?
1.

Self Interest: if your professor chooses an
open textbook, you could save hundreds next
semester!

2.

Define the Enemy: this is the best way to
fight back against publisher rip-offs

3.

Stress Urgency: faculty are choosing books
for next term right now, and students are the
best hope to tell them about OER
Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition

the library. Order hard copies of open
textbooks, then set them up next to
copies of expensive textbooks. Add
large price tags, and potentially set up
a computer with a digital copy too.

  • 40. Why Work With Students? • • • Students are ultimately the beneficiaries of OER Students are effective messengers We need an army Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 41. Tips: Working With Students 1. Focus on affordability. Generally speaking, students are interested in OER for one thing, and one thing only – cheaper textbooks. The key to attracting and motivating students is to present OER as a solution. Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 42. Tips: Working With Students 2. Explain why OER is a solution. Students want lower costs next semester, not next decade. They tend to fight hardest for immediate solutions: renting, used books, reserve copies, etc. To gain student support, it is important to provide context for why OER is a solution worth fighting for. Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 43. Tips: Working With Students 3. Don’t overcomplicate things. Most students don’t understand open licensing – and that’s OK. Students can appreciate and advocate for OER as a solution without knowing the ins and outs of the different licenses, etc – all they need is a practical understanding (stay tuned). Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 44. Tips: Working With Students 4. Start with “Open textbooks” “OER” and “educational resources” are foreign terms to students. It’s best to focus on the most familiar form of OER, “open textbooks.” Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 45. Explaining OER to Students What are open textbooks? 1. Comparable: like any other text – similar material and format, sold in the bookstore 2. Affordable: low-cost in print and digital form – read free online, download printable PDF and/or buy a hard copy for $20-40. 3. Flexible: professors can legally create their own version of the textbook by removing unwanted sections and adding new material. Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 46. Explaining OER to Students Why support open textbooks? 1. Savings: professors who adopt open textbooks save students 80% on average, that’s $10,000 for the typical 100-student class. Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 47. Savings vs. New Books Open Textbooks Rentals E-books Used books 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org Source: www.studentpirgs.org/textbooks/research @SPARC_NA
  • 48. Explaining OER to Students Why support open textbooks? 1. Savings: professors who adopt open textbooks save students 80% on average, that’s $10,000 for the typical 100-student class 2. Options: students can choose whichever print or digital format they want, all at low costs Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 49. Student Preferences 25% 34% 66% Prefer digital Rent All Keep Some 75% Prefer print Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org Source: www.studentpirgs.org/textbooks/research @SPARC_NA
  • 50. Explaining OER to Students Why support open textbooks? 1. Savings: professors who adopt open textbooks save students 80% on average, that’s $10,000 for the typical 100-student class 2. Options: students can choose whichever print or digital format they want, all at low costs 3. Change: major publishers have a stranglehold on the market, and the best way to change that is to increase competition with OER Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 51. Explaining OER to Students Why take action now? 1. Self Interest: if your professor chooses an open textbook, you could save hundreds next semester! 2. Define the Enemy: this is the best way to fight back against publisher rip-offs 3. Stress Urgency: faculty are choosing books for next term right now, and students are the best hope to tell them about OER Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 52. Outreach to Students Student Groups • Student government • Political, consumer or social justice groups, like PIRG, Campus Progress, Young Dems, etc. • Academic clubs and societies • Fraternities and sororities • Environmental or cultural groups Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA
  • 53. Outreach to Students Individual students • Ask professors to recommend students, or offer extra credit for participating • Create opportunities for students to selfidentify: sign up form, posters, flyers, info sessions • Distribute materials to help students take action on their own Scholarly Publishing &Academic Resources Coalition www.sparc.arl.org @SPARC_NA

  4. Student preferences varyon how they want to access their books2/3 would still want to keep some of their books for future reference even if they had the option to rent everythingMost students still prefer print textbooks over digital. This figure is a few years old and it’s shifting, but it’s still important to offer print
