Open Course Resources Augment Learning

The first edition of Building a Medical Terminology Foundation has been viewed over 1.7 million times and adapted by 17 institutions. 

As is common in the open community, users shared their feedback with authors. And they listened. 

More Than Textbooks

Open educational resources (OER) are not limited to digital textbooks. Teachers sought more related course materials to augment learning.

Instructor's manuals, videos, and more can be OER. 

Suite of Resources

When it came time to produce the second edition of this OER, the authors had a clear plan. 

They worked with Open Learning to develop a suite of teaching ancillaries, a student companion workbook filled with worksheets, and an interactive study aid, the Anatomical Colouring Book.

Read more about how the authors created supplemental course resources to accompany Building a Medical Terminology Foundation 2e.
