dc.description.abstractThis session aims to alleviate any fear professors may have in transforming a course from a regular format using textbooks to an alternative textbook format. While this seems to be a daunting undertaking, many already have the necessary tools at their disposal. Using an LMS, be it Blackboard, Canvas, Moodle, or others, as the basis for establishing the desired flow and appropriate context for the course, eliminating the cost of textbooks for students is possible.en_US
