2015 ASEE MidAtlantic Section Conference A Potential Solution for Textbook Affordability Ashwin Satyanarayana, Tatiana Malyuta and Hong Li N-913, Computer Systems Technology, New York City College of Technology (CUNY), 300 Jay St, Brooklyn, NY 11201.AbstractThe cost of college textbooks has skyrocketed in recent years. To students and families alreadystruggling to afford high tuition and fees, an additional $1,200 per year on books and suppliescan be the breaking point. That’s as much as 39% of tuition and fees at a community college and14% of tuition and fees at a four-year public institution.During the fall of 2013, the

Particularly, as some departments (e.g., Biological andAgricultural Engineering and Engineering Technology) guided the course to be taken in the firstor second semester of sophomore, relatively fewer number of students achieved the coursecredits. While on average, about 72% of FTIC students and about 28% of FTT students achievedcredits on the courses by taking the courses at the institution. In contrast, about 7% of FTICstudents and about 62% of FTT students achieved the transfer credits on the common courses.

With the success of case-basedinstruction seen in medical and law curriculums, an increasing number of science, technology,engineering and math (STEM) instructors have begun to integrate cases into their courses. A newchampion for the use of cases in the sciences emerged in 1994 with the work of Herried andfunding from the National Science Foundation to form the National Center for Case StudyTeaching in the Sciences (NCCSTS). This educational pedagogy promotes the use of cases, orinteractive “stories”, to engage students in STEM courses and to help reform STEM instruction14,18-20 . These
