ASCCC OERI Discipline Leads are tasked with curating resources for their discipline, serve as a resource for their discipline colleagues, and are focused on community-building. Find suggested OER resources on the Philosophy page.
This spreadsheet includes all CRC Philosophy courses, links to CRC Canvas Shell templates (if applicable) and suggested OER resources. It can also be opened in another window if you prefer to view it full-screen and if the OER textbook you're using is not listed in the Canvas Shells column, you can request it.
Librarians have done some initial research for some disciplines and classes to give faculty a starting point as they begin to convert classes to ZTC. These are Google docs that can be updated. If you need help with a specific class, please reach out to the OER Project Lead.
