From Debbie S. Ma:
"This semester, 105 PSY150 Introduction to Psychology students completed my course. If I were not sensitive to student finances, I would have selected a textbook that ranges between $150 and $175 each. Instead, I ended up using NOBA as a textbook. The chapters I ended up using were shorter, more specialized, and fully online. The book also included online quizzes for students to use for their studies. [...] This was a new course for me, so I didn’t have to switch a textbook. However, I have done ALS before and did have to change my book that time. I would say it is really worth it. In this class I saved over $15,000 in textbook costs! That’s an incredible amount of money - enough to send multiple students to school for the semester. To me, it’s a no brainer to use an OER."
