Hi everyone !
At StFX, we are launching a
voluntary course marking program for zero and low textbook cost courses on the course timetable for the next regular academic year, starting in September. We have landed on $75 for now for the low-cost option, which is based partially on the textbook costs
from 2023/2024, at least for now. I realize other institutions have a lower threshold, but this is what we’re starting with, anyway. My question is, how are institutions marking courses when the textbook is shared across more than one course? I’m unsure of
the cost of the book in question, to be honest, but I thought I would ask the group as to how other institutions are handling this unique situation.
Many thanks in advance,
