Inclusive Access Course Materials: An Analysis of Waukesha County Technical College's Inclusive Access Program
Michael R. Moore; Brad Piazza
Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, v23 n3 p58-73 2023
The rising costs of course materials have higher education stakeholders seeking alternative models to the traditional course materials acquisition model. One model of interest is Inclusive Access. Inclusive Access has had a sudden rise in adoption across the country which has left gaps in the literature as to the effectiveness of such programs. A review of the literature on the effectiveness of Inclusive Access course materials models returned only four published studies. The purpose of this study was to examine the use of an Inclusive Access course materials model and its effects on student success rates at a Waukesha County Technical College (WCTC). WCTC provided student outcome data for 7110 students across six courses. The analysis documented significant differences between the before and after Inclusive Access samples for five of the nine categories examined. Black students (+12.80 %), Female students (+3.93%), and Students [greater than or equal to] Age 25 (+3.40%) had the largest increase in success rates when comparing the before and after Inclusive Access implementation populations.
