#OnYGo is an innovative first-year French language e-textbook, designed as Open Educational Resource (OER), for learning beginning French (equivalent to one year at an American university). It is inspired by a remix of task-based, multiliteracies and communicative approaches, which provides students with opportunities to engage with French language and culture in a variety of contexts and situations, across a range of modalities. Through a wide range of activities, students develop and practice their language skills, and reflect on their cross-cultural knowledge and positionality in their understanding of the vast francophone landscape.

Nursing education programs have a reputation of being demanding, difficult, and exhausting. Since the education process is the way students are socialized into the culture of nursing, it is the obligation of faculty to create an environment in which students come to know each other as colleagues who are free to express their uniqueness. This book describes the evolution and living of a caring-based program grounded in foundational beliefs and values of person and centered in caring.

This book is based on lectures given by the author in an intensive undergraduate course in quantum mechanics which occupies a central role in the physics curriculum at UCLA. It is a required course for all third-year physics and astrophysics students, but it is taken by some seniors and many graduate students, both in physics and in related fields. Elementary Quantum Mechanics is part of the Florida Atlantic University Libraries Digital Collection and was contributed to the FAU repository by the Department of Physics.
