18. Real laboratory accessed through the Internet From anywhere at any time Not a “virtual laboratory” (simulations) The Example of iLab 18

19. iLab Partnerships for K-12 ( with Northwestern University)  NSF-funded project focused on integrating iLabs into secondary schools  iLabs are used to demonstrate science relating to topics of interest  Makes STEM programs more engaging  Presently focused on physics, though new iLabs in biology and chemistry are forthcoming 19

22. Value: Customization; Flexibility; Cost 22 CK-12 has produced several open textbooks called “flexbooks”., Their Physics Flexbook is in use in Virginia high schools; developed and delivered within 6 months FWK 800 colleges will utilize their open textbooks this year, saving 150,000 students $12 million or more in textbook expenses. A professor at the UMich School of Information, took an existing Computer Science Python textbook that was licensed under an open license and remixed the book in only 11 days. Michigan’s espresso book machine printed copies for $10
