Z x 23
Scaling the zero-textbook-cost
degree across Virginia’s
Community Colleges
http://www.vccs.edu/about/where-we-are/impact/
16 out of 23 VCCS colleges have
ongoing OER projects
SOLUTION?
Z x 23 Project1. 50,000 students will successfully
complete Z degree courses at fifteen (15) VCCS colleges.
2. Establish a model for sustaining and supporting the z courses and other OER infrastructure.
3. Create a detailed “roadmap” to for postsecondary institutions interested in scaling and sustaining a statewide or system OER infrastructure.
BACKGROUND
• The Textbook Costs and Digital Learning
Resources (TCDLR) Committee TCDLR Final
Report, released in January 2015.
• The Chancellor’s OER Adoption Grants (I & II)
offered selected faculty and library staff stipends
and support to adopt and adapt high-quality OER
for high-enrollment courses.

CHALLENGES
• The overall percentage of faculty adoption
is relatively low.
• Limited access to data on OER use and
impact.
• Need an OER Commons
• OER adoption has yet to scale in a broad,
systemic way by a large postsecondary
system like the Virginia Community College
System.
CHALLENGES
Create a sustainable
infrastructure so the OER can be
scaled effectively among
colleges and the full potential of
Virginia’s investment in open
can be realized.
Portability = scalability
