April 2022 Textbook Hero - Lori Ann Simmons

Image
Name: Lori Ann Simmons What are some of the classes you teach? Introductory Statistics and Statistics How long have you been with CVTC? 6 years How long have you been using low-cost and/or no-cost textbooks? 1 year What is your favorite part of using low-cost and/or no-cost textbooks? My favorite part is being able to make it my own. I have taken feedback from my students over the years and created something that works amazing for them. I now have a product that I can use for many semesters. If I need to make changes, it is very easy to do. Any estimated student cost savings from using low-cost and/or no-cost textbooks? I save about $200 for each student (textbook and calculator). That is around $60,000 each year.
