Professor Created Course Materials Survey

As you may know, one of the projects we work on here at CALI is eLangdell Press, which creates and distributes open law school casebooks.  We do this because we believe educational materials should be Open – that is to say, able to be remixed, reused and ideally free. We’re not the only ones trying to create alternatives to the traditional commercially published casebook – Harvard’s Berkman Center has H2O and I keep stumbling upon individual professors that create their own casebook supplements and alternatives.

That’s actually the problem – we only learn about most of our fellow travelers in this area by accident.  A tweet here, a comment at a conference there – we actually don’t know how many professors are out there doing their own thing, why they do it or how.

Let’s change that.

Below you’ll find a FIVE MINUTE survey for professors that create their own course materials.  It can be as complex as an entire casebook alternative published on the web or as simple as handing out copies of a relevant case from the local jurisdiction.   If you can’t view the embedded survey, it can also be found here: http://cca.li/kG  Please help us distribute the survey and encourage any one you know that this applies to to take it.
