Abstract

This session will describe the efforts to implement a student-authored textbook within an Educational foundations course, and the subsequent efforts to evaluate the credibility of the textbook that was created. Focus will be given to the design of the textbook itself, the implementation of the process, the results that were achieved, and the subsequent evaluation of the credibility of the product.
