This document discusses open textbooks and their potential benefits for increasing access and affordability of higher education. It notes that the rising costs of textbooks have negatively impacted many students' academic success by preventing them from purchasing required materials. Open textbooks which are freely available online could help address this issue. The document provides data showing the large increases in textbook prices over time as well as studies finding open textbooks can achieve similar learning outcomes to traditional textbooks while saving students money. It profiles various open textbook adoption programs and licenses that aim to expand access to educational resources.

This document discusses the rising costs of textbooks and their negative impact on student access and success. It notes that tuition increases and funding cuts have shifted costs to students, with the average student spending over $1,200 per year on textbooks and materials. The high and increasing costs have led many students to delay purchasing textbooks, use older editions, or forgo them entirely. This can hurt academic performance and increase dropout rates. Open textbooks provide an affordable alternative by making materials freely available online under open licenses. The document advocates for the adoption of open textbooks to improve access and lower barriers to higher education.

This document discusses the rising costs of higher education and textbooks and the barriers this creates for students. It notes that state funding for public universities has declined while tuition costs have increased, making college less affordable. The average student spends over $1,000 per year on textbooks alone. To save money, many students don't purchase required textbooks or take fewer courses. Open textbooks that are freely available online could help increase access and reduce costs. The document promotes the adoption of open textbooks and provides information about writing reviews of open textbooks for a library.

This document discusses the high cost of textbooks and its negative impact on students. It notes that textbook prices have risen much faster than inflation over the past 30 years, with the average student now spending $1,200 per year on textbooks. This cost deters many students from purchasing required textbooks, leading some to earn poor grades, drop or fail courses. The document advocates for open textbooks, which are available online for free under open licenses, as a way to reduce costs and improve access and academic success for students. It provides some examples of open textbooks and their benefits, such as a free online college physics textbook used by over 300,000 students.

This document discusses the rising costs of textbooks and open textbooks as an alternative. It notes that textbook prices have increased 812% since 1978 while students' financial aid and wages have not kept pace. This barrier prevents many from completing college degrees. Open textbooks, which are freely available online under open licenses, could help address this issue. Research has found that open textbooks can provide equal or better learning outcomes at a much lower cost. The document advocates for raising awareness of open textbooks and reviewing titles in the Open Textbook Library.

This document discusses the rising costs of textbooks and their negative impact on student access and success in higher education. It notes that declining state funding and increasing tuition has shifted costs to students. The average student budget for textbooks in 2016-17 was $1,230-$1,390, and many students delay purchasing textbooks or don't purchase them at all due to high costs, which can negatively impact their grades. Open textbooks, which are freely accessible online and can be customized by instructors, are presented as an alternative that can help address the textbook affordability crisis. Studies have found open textbooks can achieve equal or better learning outcomes compared to traditional textbooks while saving students thousands of dollars.

This document discusses open textbooks and the Open Textbook Network. It notes that the cost of textbooks prevents many students from completing college and causes academic issues for many current students. The Open Textbook Network works to address barriers that prevent faculty from adopting open textbooks, like lack of awareness or quality concerns. Data shows the Open Textbook Library website and open textbook reviews and adoptions have grown substantially over time. A study found open textbooks did not negatively impact student learning. Many colleges and universities have now adopted open textbooks, saving students an estimated $1.5 million at the University of Minnesota alone.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP

RAHUL

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade. The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization, population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different 'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the land. The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover. Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface, providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and diverse human activities. Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems 9 Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can occur natural.

In terms of student and teacher perceptions of OER, 2,366 students and 2,144 faculty members were surveyed across the nine peer-reviewed studies. Approximately 50% said that the OER resources were as good as traditional resources, 35% said the OER were superior and 15% said they were inferior. Allen, I., Seaman, J. (2014).
