AbstractWhat role did COVID-19 play in the students’ benefits and challenges of open educational resources (OER)? Motivated by decades of research in helping students to access and use course materials to improve their learning by offering substitutes to the highly priced and exponentially increasing costs of commercially printed textbooks, this paper takes another dive to understand students’ challenges and benefits of OERs during the pandemic. Based on an anonymous survey distributed to students enrolled in CUNY Kingsborough Community College (N=1,175 participants) during Fall 2020, the two top benefits reported were cost savings and access. Some challenges that are identified in open and closed ended questions are organization of the material to fit the course design of the faculty. It is important to note that students had difficulty with accessing also the OER material, unlike prior surveys, but they continue recommending OER material at similar rates as prior to the pandemic.

A project of Macaulay Honors College and CUNY Advance, "Science Forward is a new type of undergraduate science seminar, helping students to see science as a lens on the world, a way of approaching questions and challenges. The course focuses on the critical thinking skills in use across the scientific disciplines, which we have summarized as the “science senses.” Starting with critical issues in the contemporary world, from climate change to the social and economic implications of artificial intelligence, the course encourages active learning and inquiry-based instruction."
