This text is designed to introduce the reader to the essential concepts of sustainability. This subject is of vital importance – seeking as it does to uncover the principles of the long-term welfare of all the peoples of the planet – but is only peripherally served by existing college textbooks.

The content is intended to be useful for both a broad-based introductory class on sustainability and as a useful supplement to specialist courses which wish to review the sustainability dimensions of their areas of study. By covering a wide range of topics with a uniformity of style, and by including glossaries, review questions, case studies, and links to further resources, the text has sufficient range to perform as the core resource for a semester course. Students who cover the material in the book will be conversant in the language and concepts of sustainability, and will be equipped for further study in sustainable planning, policy, economics, climate, ecology, infrastructure, and more.

description:
Chemistry: Atoms First is a peer-reviewed, openly licensed introductory textbook produced through a collaborative publishing partnership between OpenStax and the University of Connecticut and UConn Undergraduate Student Government Association. This title is an adaptation of the OpenStax Chemistry text and covers scope and sequence requirements of the two-semester general chemistry course. Reordered to fit an atoms first approach, this title introduces atomic and molecular structure much earlier than the traditional approach, delaying the introduction of more abstract material so students have time to acclimate to the study of chemistry. Chemistry: Atoms First also provides a basis for understanding the application of quantitative principles to the chemistry that underlies the entire course.

description:
Published by OpenStax College, Precalculus is intended for college-level precalculus students. Since precalculus courses vary from one institution to the next, we have attempted to meet the needs of as broad an audience as possible, including all of the content that might be covered in any particular course. The result is a comprehensive book that covers more ground than an instructor could likely cover in a typical one- or two-semester course; but instructors should find, almost without fail, that the topics they wish to include in their syllabus are covered in the text. Many chapters of Openstax College Precalculus are suitable for other freshman and sophomore math courses such as College Algebra and Trigonometry; however, instructors of those courses might need to supplement or adjust the material. OpenStax will also have College Algebra and Algebra and Trigonometry titles tailored to the particular scope, sequence, and pedagogy of those courses.

en: Business and Economics

uk: Право, економіка та суспільні науки

description: This is a first-year business communications course. The designers of this course have taken a process-oriented approach that focuses less on genre and more on the decisions that business communicators make. Students will be encouraged to reflect on their own writing beliefs, values, and experiences, then apply these learnings to a business communication context. This course intentionally avoids relying heavily on video content, since many students do not have stable internet access.Students who take this course will learn how to analyze context and audience, determine purpose, message content, visual design, and media in order to write workplace messages that can be received, understood, used, and retrieved with speed and accuracy. As is, the course is centred around a blogging assignment, but you can adapt the materials, if you wish.This course can be used as a “course in a box” that you can plug into your learning management system and use. Flexibility has been built in so that you can take bits and pieces of the course’s six modules that work for you and remix them, since everything in this course package has a Creative Commons licence.Included in this course package is a course plan for instructors, which matches learning outcomes to assignments, provides sample assignments and weighting, and breaks down the course structure week by week with associated learning outcomes, learning skills, resources, learning activities, suggestions for showing care and building community, and assignments.Other features of this course include an instructor guide that details all the components of the course and explains how to use them; a sample course syllabus; weekly lesson plans for students with notes for instructors; a suggested assignment package; weekly readings from an open textbook; interactive asynchronous lectures, provided in H5P, PowerPoint, and audio file formats; and participation activities, along with supplementary resources.

description: This environmental geology course is about how geological processes affect the environment as well as humans and their infrastructure, and also about how humans affect geological processes. The course covers the typical environmental geology topics (earthquakes, volcanoes, slope failures, etc.) but has a strong emphasis on Earth systems and especially on climate change. The motivation behind making this course open and widely available is the urgency of environmental issues like climate change, which is more important at this time than ever before.Climate change, which is a human-rights issue, is discussed at length in the course, both in terms of the rights of Canadians to a viable future and the rights of hundreds of millions others around the world to sufficient water, appropriate conditions in which to grow and gather food, and — in some cases — to the very existence of the land they live on. Every effort has been made to create a course that embraces the principles of equity, diversity, and inclusion.The course is designed to be completed by independent study, but could also be offered in a classroom setting. Students working on their own should expect to spend at least 60 hours reading and doing exercises and another 15 hours completing assignments. The course could be completed in about 36 hours of classroom time.The course is divided into 5 units, and the outline for the units is included in the course syllabus template. That document includes an overview of the course content, links to extra resources, and assigned readings from the open textbook.The length of this course will vary depending on the delivery method. It could be completed in a 12- to 13-week semester or in a 6-week condensed semester. Students doing the course by independent study may need longer, depending on their circumstances. It is recommended that they be allowed at least 20 weeks, with the potential for an extension if there are extenuating circumstances.Other features of this course include an instructor guide and a student guide, as well as assignments, marking rubrics for each assignment, and visual aids for most units.

description: Introduction to Management is a first-year business course covering fundamental topics including organizational change, leadership, human resource management, ethics, and strategic management. The course is designed to introduce learners to management topics through the use of case studies which will be the focal point of discussions throughout the course.Materials for this course include lesson plans, case studies, instructor guides, weekly readings from an open textbook, midterm and final assessments. The course is set up to cover one case study each week. The course materials can be used to deliver the course in person, online or in a blended format.This course was developed to address two primary gaps present in many introductory management courses:Immediate application of concepts rather than a focus on high level theory.Examples and cases that are applicable on a smaller scale, where most students in decision-making roles are, rather than focusing on large Fortune 500 businesses with hundreds or thousands of employees.The author teaches at Coast Mountain College in Terrace, British Columbia, which is a part of thriving Northwest BC. Many of the cases take place in northern regions of the province, but the principles of management remain the same everywhere. Northern BC has a rich Indigenous heritage, featuring a ground-breaking self-determining government in the Nisga’a Nation, in addition to many other Indigenous groups with unique cultures. The author has provided advice to and engaged with numerous Indigenous entrepreneurs across northern BC, and many of the cases contained in this package are drawn on those experiences.

description: Mathematics of Finance is a first-year course introducing topics including simple interest formulas, payments, promissory notes, market price and rate of return for treasury bills, load repayment and amortization schedules, compound interest, annuities, bond discounts and premiums, market price of bonds and net present value. The course is comprised of lesson plans designed to be used in conjunction with a workbook and video tutorials. The instructor may use any mathematics of finance open textbook as a supplement however, it is not necessary and learning outcomes can easily be met by following the workbook.While the course is adaptable, this course was created as a way of easily using the “flipped-classroom” approach. In this approach, the instructor completes an example and the class is then given time to work through an example. Students share their work with their peers to compare answers (known as “Think-Pair-Share”).Accessibility Statement: The audio in the provided tutorial videos does not always provide a description of what is being displayed.

description: Elementary Differential Equations with Boundary Value Problems is written for students in science, engineering, and mathematics who have completed calculus through partial differentiation. If your syllabus includes Chapter 10 (Linear Systems of Differential Equations), your students should have some preparation in linear algebra. In writing this book, the author aimed to make the language easy to understand. As an elementary text, this book is written in an informal but mathematically accurate way, illustrated by appropriate graphics. The author has tried to formulate mathematical concepts succinctly in language that students can understand and has minimized the number of explicitly stated theorems and defonitions, preferring to deal with concepts in a more conversational way, copiously illustrated by 299 completely worked out examples. Where appropriate, concepts and results are depicted in 188 figures.This text also includes 2041 numbered exercises, many with several parts. They range in difficulty from routine to very challenging.

description: This text introduces embedded controller systems using the inexpensive and widely available Arduino hardware platform and the C programming language. It is intended for students in Electrical Engineering and Electrical Engineering Technology programs at the Associate and Baccalaureate levels.Unlike many Arduino texts, this text does not rely solely on the Arduino libraries. Rather, it “gets under the hood” and directly accesses I/O ports, pins and DDR, as would be expected in a traditional college level microprocessor/microcontroller course.The companion laboratory manual introduces embedded controller systems using the Arduino hardware platform and the C programming language. Exercises include usage of seven-segment displays, switches and analog input devices; a reaction timer; PWM; an event counter and an arbitrary waveform generator.

description: This book has been specifically created to make it easier for professors to offer a law school course on global corruption. It is also designed as a resource tool for all persons working in the anti-corruption field. The first chapter sets out the general context of global corruption: its nature and extent, and some views on its historical, social, economic and political dimensions. Each subsequent chapter sets out international standards and requirements in respect to combatting corruption — mainly in the UN Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) and the OECD Bribery of Foreign Officials Convention (OECD Convention).The laws of the United States and United Kingdom are then set out as examples of how those Convention standards and requirements are met in two influential jurisdictions. Finally, the law of Canada is set out. Thus, a professor from Africa, Australia, New Zealand or English-speaking countries in Asia and Europe has a nearly complete coursebook — for example, that professor can delete the Canadian sections of this book and insert the law and practices of his or her home country in their place. While primarily directed to a law school course on global corruption, this book will be of interest and use to professors teaching courses on corruption from other academic disciplines and to lawyers and other anti-corruption practitioners.

description: This book is based on the idea that there is a particular framework used by economists to interpret observed reality. This framework has been called the economic way of thinking, the economic approach, and the method of economics. This book is different from the many other books that attempt to teach microeconomics in three ways: It explicitly applies the recipe of the economic approach in every example; it uses concrete examples via Microsoft Excel in every application, which enables the reader to manipulate live graphs and learn numerical methods of optimization; and the majority of the content is in the Excel workbooks which the reader uses to create meaning. You learn by doing, not by reading.

description: This book is meant to be a textbook for a standard one-semester introductory statistics course for general education students. Over time the core content of this course has developed into a well-defined body of material that is substantial for a one-semester course. The authors believe that the students in this course are best served by a focus on the core material and not by an exposure to a plethora of peripheral topics. Therefore in writing this book we have sought to present material that comprises fully a central body of knowledge that is defined according to convention, realistic expectation with respect to course duration and students’ maturity level, and our professional judgment and experience.
