Open textbooks are a positive step to addressing the digital divide, with students indicating there are cost and learning benefits of open educational resources. In 2020, QUT piloted the use of Pressbooks to facilitate the adaptation and development of open textbooks by QUT academics for QUT students as well as broader audiences.
