Breakout Learning is excited to announce our partnership with OpenStax, the nonprofit leader in peer-reviewed college textbooks!
Through this partnership, Breakout Learning will be building original discussion modules on OpenStax content, combining their high-quality educational materials with our structured discussion framework. Students using Breakout Learning will also have direct access to OpenStax materials through our platform.
The result? Students get quality, peer-reviewed content alongside the active learning experiences that make the content stick. For instructors, it means seamless integration of trusted course content with the engagement students need to succeed.
This partnership reflects what we believe about education: students deserve both excellent resources and meaningful ways to engage with them.
Reading is just the start – students need to talk, think, and grapple with ideas to truly learn them. 📚
On February 3rd, Breakout and OpenStax hosted a joint webinar, "Enhancing OpenStax Resources with AI-Resilient Oral Assessments," to dive into the exciting details of our new partnership. If you missed the session, you can catch the recording here!
