A new tool from the Campus Bookstore enables instructors to quickly discover, research, and adopt course materials all in one place.
The University of Windsor Campus Bookstore has a simple tool for faculty to use to adopt course materials for winter semester.
Follett Discover allows instructors to quickly discover, research, and adopt course materials all in one place. In addition to adopting traditional print materials, Follett Discover makes it easy to search and adopt non-traditional materials such as YouTube videos, open education resources, and content from Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs).
The deadline for submitting Winter 2024 course material adoptions is Oct. 15.
“By submitting adoptions by the due date, the Campus Bookstore has time to source used and rental inventory, which translates to savings for your students,” says Dana Cortese, course materials manager.
She thanks faculty for their patience as the store finalizes details for Winter 2024. Some members may not have access to Follett Discover until then. In those cases, the deadline will be extended for those affected.
Cortese adds that instructors consistently using the same book from term to term should inform the Campus Bookstore so that it can secure significant savings for students.
To access Follett Discover:
- Log into your LMS: https://brightspace.uwindsor.ca/
- Select “Course Textbooks” from the top navigation menu
- Start Discovering
