We're also grateful to the Online Learning Consortium, who has served as administrator for our grant and provided invaluable feedback.  \nThis project would also not be possible without the faculty and administrators—over 3,000 respondents—who completed our survey. We review every response and read every submitted comment and have included some in this report, with permission. Each quote is as close to the original as possible; changes were made to remove personally identifying information or to correct obvious typos.  \nThe project also received great support from the open education community. We turned to members of the community for feedback and advice throughout the course of this project and thank them for helping to improve the final version.  \nThis report would also not possible without support from our colleagues. We thank Nate Ralph for his extensive copy editing, I. Elaine Allen for feedback throughout the process, and Mark Favazza for designing the report cover.  \nFinally, we’d also like to thank everyone who reads this report. Your comments and feedback help guide the future of this project and are always welcome.  \nJulia E.

The surveys have tracked the growth of digital materials and OER in higher education classrooms since 2009, providing trends on adoption and sentiments. The results also covered the abrupt transitions to remote teaching and return to in-person instruction during and following the COVID-19 pandemic.  \nThe survey responses for this analysis were collected in April 2024, from a total of 3,447 faculty. The respondents come from all 50 U.S. ","cbCaibV6U3wMRnlO","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibV6U3wMRnlO","pdf",843427,32,"English","# Acknowledgments\n# Executive Summary\n# Study Results\n## Teaching Modalities\n## Textbook Formats\n## Perspectives on Digital versus Print\n## OER Awareness\n## OER Use\n# Summary\n# Methodology\n# Definitions\n# Appendix Tables","[{\"question\":\"How many faculty responses were collected for the April 2024 survey?\",\"answer\":\"A total of 3,447 faculty responses were collected in April 2024 for the analysis.\"},{\"question\":\"What teaching modalities were most common in 2024?\",\"answer\":\"Fully face-to-face courses remained the most common modality, with three-quarters of faculty teaching at least one such course in 2024.\"},{\"question\":\"How did OER awareness and use change compared with 2022–23?\",\"answer\":\"OER awareness dropped 8% compared with 2022–23, and the rate of OER use as required materials declined by 3% for 2023–24.\"}]","Approaching a New Normal?
