It provides grants to USG faculty to create and publish open materials for use by students in a wide variety of college-level courses. You can be sure all materials available through Affordable Learning Georgia are peer-reviewed and appropriate for college teaching. Affordable Learning Georgia also aggregates OER materials from other sources. These sources will be explored in this guide.
