Open Teaching Materials
The purpose of this Open Teaching Materials collection is to allow TAMU Faculty to self-deposit teaching materials that they have authored and wish to share openly with the world, beyond the campus- and course-restricted Learning Management System.
Faculty, please note that as part of the self-deposit process, the Libraries’ Office of Scholarly Communication would encourage you to apply a Creative Commons (CC) license to your work as you share it here. (For help choosing which type, see: https://creativecommons.org/choose/ .) By default via the submission process link immediately below, the CC license version will be the latest (4.0), with international jurisdiction. (For details, see: https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/License_Versions .) If for any reason you would like to restrict the jurisdiction by country, you will need to contact us at digital@library.tamu.edu before you deposit the item.
