Acknowledgements

I extend my sincere gratitude to Keyano College for providing the resources and collaborative environment necessary to develop this Open Educational Resource (OER).  This textbook was funded by the generous support of Keyano College’s Open Educational Resource (OER) Adaptation Grant.  In addition, this Open Educational Resource (OER) would not have been possible without the generous support of the following individuals.

• I am especially grateful to Melanie Forest, Chair of Library Services and Copyright Liaison for her OER expertise and invaluable support throughout the OER development process.
• I sincerely appreciate the support from Sarah Schmidt, Director of Academic Experience, for believing in the value of open education and empowering educators to create resources that support learners in our college community.
• Special thanks to Kim Peacock for lending her expertise in OER development, educational technology, and instructional design.

This valuable support has contributed to a broader culture of educational equity and collaboration that strengthens teaching and learning across our institution and beyond.
