ProQuest SIPX is paving the way for higher education institutions and campus leaders to reduce students' cost of education by leveraging increased use of open educational resources (OER) as part of the SIPX® complete course materials solution.
ProQuest SIPX has generated more than $3.6million to date in savings for students and schools across the US. A recent article from information industry analyst Outsell notes that SIPX helps to solve the problem of lower student outcomes because of prohibitively expensive curriculum resources. SIPX serves a growing need and role as Outsell points out "the increasing willingness of institutions to invest time and energy in compiling OER repositories, and to share courses they have created which use OER materials."
Access to OER is ever more critical for institutions and SIPX not only makes it easy for instructors to understand the costs of their selected course readings, but also surfaces OER and library-subscribed resources that are free for students deeper into instructor workflows and platforms such as their native campus Learning Management Systems and bookstore coursepacks, making it easier to connect and adopt these resources.
