Open educational resources (OER) are teaching, learning, and research resources that are in the public domain or are licensed for reuse. OER can be entire courses, textbooks, modules, software and more.
Affordable Learning Solutions @ SJSU encourages faculty to reduce the cost of a college education for their students by adopting and using OER in the classroom. It is coordinated at San Jose State University by the University Library in cooperation with our campus partners: the Center for Faculty Development, the Accessible Education Center, the Office of the Provost, and the Spartan Bookstore.
Are you a faculty member at SJSU who is interested in adding an open educational resource to SJSU ScholarWorks? Please contact us: scholarworks [at] sjsu [dot] edu.

Courts and Society in the United States
Margaret Stevenson
Courts and Society in the United States was created to support JS 103: Courts and Society. This course reviews the structure and function of the United States court system with an emphasis on the roles of attorneys and judges and the court process itself. It also examines the societal and legal effect of federal and state legislative, executive, and judicial branch actions, including Supreme Court decisions in civil and criminal cases.
