Discipline
For all our disciplines, except for Computer Science, Inspark OER has created a course content package and several ready-to-use assignment guides that incorporate the tools.

What are Content Packages?
Definition and explanation
Teams of instructors curated existing OER to create each Course Content Package. Each package includes the content needed for the course and interactive, ready-to-use assignments using the Inspark OER tools. The content included for each course was chosen by synthesizing the course requirements from three partner institutions to create universal competencies with a goal that each course addresses the major concepts from multiple college’s perspectives.
Examples of use
Inspark OER Course Content Packages are designed to offer instructors flexibility and ownership over the content and materials they teach with. Inspark OER content can be used as a whole package or a la carte, where an instructor can take specific elements to supplement their own existing material. Customization is also offered within the content and assignments, so you can tailor it to your course needs.
