34. 34 My experience has been very good. I do not have a lot of experience, mainly just using the BC open textbook for my course. Using this resource has saved me a lot of time and money, allowing me to help pay for insurance for my car. [The] open textbook has been nice because it saved me money, only drawback is not being able to highlight text while studying I have enjoyed it. It helps me explore my lectures further, and really helps with my understanding of the topic. THOMPSON RIVERS UNIVERSITY | June 2016 | Festival of Learning
