Cool4Ed is a digital open source library, comprising of free, open materials and faculty showcases from the California Community Colleges (CCC), California State Universities (CSU), and University of California (UC) campuses. Faculty Showcases are available to view by campus and/or academic discipline. These showcases serve the purpose of offering faculty members alternative resources to help reduce the costs of their course materials.
View CSUSM's Faculty Showcases to see what materials our faculty are using to help our students save money!
If you are teaching a Zero Cost Course Materials (ZCCM) class and would like to complete a Faculty Showcase, please email calm@csusm.edu. Professional development funds are available for completion of faculty showcases added to Cool4Ed.
