Found open source textbooks to use with my class -- they are free and useable. One service kinda charges, but the basis is open source so will have to work with them on the content. Revising the course descriptions based on the new textbooks this week as we are uploading on Tuesday, March 19th for UC credit! YAHOO. Fingers crossed it goes through on the first step. Don't want to revise too much since they were approved. Just need to double check them tonight so they are ready. The econ one just need to revise the schedule which will be a no-brainer-- just time consuming.
The accounting will need to review lots of material and see what we can do with regards to software.. May not need much and if we can move to new laptops and or chromebooks we may be on our way. Trying to get away from needing much in the way of proprietary software. Think we can get by on consumables and ledger books. We'll see. Just need to get my hands on the things we are using so I can get them all into moodle and see if there are any modules I can just download.
Ipads would be great, but not sure about not being able to have flash for the videos and such.. if they could just get over it with Adobe -- c/mon guys!
