SSD17: FacultyEnlight® Adoption Platform

Hours: 1.25

We’re excited to introduce you to FacultyEnlight®, your source for researching, adopting and sharing insights about textbooks and course materials.

In response to conversations with faculty from multiple disciplines at campuses across the country, we created FacultyEnlight to make it easier for you to research, discuss, discover, and adopt learning materials. Our goal is to help you choose the best materials for your courses so that your students’ learning experience is the best it can possibly be.

This workshop will touch on the 4 main areas to FacultyEnlight:
- SEARCH: See what’s new in your discipline and what’s being used at other schools. Search books by ISBN, author, and/or title. At the same time, explore cost saving options for your students by viewing which books are available in digital and/or as a rental. As a registered FacultyEnlight user you have the option to create “favorite” lists, a time saver that enables you to view and/or adopt books at a later date.
- ADOPT: Submit your course materials adoptions here. We’ve simplified the process for you to make it easier and quicker to enter your information for one course or multiple courses. Registered users can return to their adoption lists in subsequent terms for easy re-order.
- DISCOVER: Explore the latest faculty resources that can help you in your mission to create outstanding learning environments for your students. From self-publishing, to custom course packs, to digital resources and e-books…you’ll find it all here.
- LEARN: Find answers to frequently asked questions and other tips that may help you as you explore all that FacultyEnlight offers.
