ENG 1310 OER (Open Education Resource; zero-cost) option(s):

1_ OpenStax _Writing Guide with Handbook_ is a free, open educational resource for English Composition and First-Year Writing courses. Michelle Bachelor Robinson of Spelman College, Maria Jerskey of Baruch College, and an additional 11 contributors developed the book to help students navigate difficult conversations through their writing. Cultural awareness is a defined outcome of the text, and is made evident through the representation of diverse contributors to the fields of literature and other forms of art and communication. Each chapter includes works from writers of different backgrounds, time periods, and perspectives. The nature of language as an element of identity, as well as invitations into discussions about language and its cultural and societal implications, are consistent elements of the material.
