PreTeXt and Runestone are two fantastic initiatives geared toward making open education resources better quality, more accessible, and easier to manage. This is a fantastic development.
We're excited to announce our latest #NSFfunded project, part of @NSF's newest Technology, Innovation and Partnerships directorate, awarded to @UofSouthAlabama and @AIMathematics: An Open-Source Ecosystem for the Creation and Use of Accessible STEM Open Educational Resources. 🧵
