This online textbook brings together readings from various Open Educational Resources (OER) for students enrolled in ENGL 1181 at Macomb Community College. By using OER materials, we can reduce textbook costs while still ensuring you have access to high-quality content for your course. The readings are organized into chapters that align with the course topics.
The readings are grouped into chapters based on the course topics. Additional materials, including readings, videos, and resources, are available in the final three chapters. You can navigate the book using the table of contents or the navigation menu on the left. On mobile devices, the navigation menu is located in the upper left corner of the screen. If you are using a screen-reader to access this site, we recommend using the screen reader-friendly version that limits the number of navigation items.
A PDF version of the textbook with the majority of readings is also available for download.
A printed copy of the PDF is also available for purchase at both Macomb bookstores for a small fee.
