This video is an introduction to open textbooks which are widely used in US and Canadian education. The film features a number of inspirational teachers, students, technologists and policy makers who are transforming the experiences of their own learners through the use of these books. Their contributions are fully attributed at the end of the film and also on the blog post.

The video refers to a research paper which is one of several that has evaluated the impact of using openly licensed books on student learning. Again the blog post will provide you with links to further information.
