In this free webinar, 2021 McGraw Prize winner Richard Baraniuk, the C. Sidney Burrus Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Rice University and Founder and Director of OpenStax, details the past, present, and future of the open access textbook movement from the perspective of the OpenStax OER initiative.
