Today the national Centre for Open Education Practice (COEP) has launched a survey to investigate students’ views and experiences of the cost of, and access to, textbooks in post-secondary education in New Zealand. The aim of the project is to investigate the impact of textbook costs on student behaviour, including choice of programme and/or institution, and on student outcomes.

We invite all tertiary education students in New Zealand to complete the survey at: https://oer.nz/textbooks

Students, teachers, librarians – we need your help!

This is an open, community-based project and we need your help. Working together, we achieve more than working alone.

We invite all tertiary education institutions, staff, and students to assist the national Centre for Open Education Practice (COEP) in promoting this survey with New Zealand post-secondary learners. The results will provide valuable baseline data regarding the affordability and access to learning materials.
