The Open Textbook Challenge
This is probably the most ingenious contest I’ve ever seen.
The Open Textbook Challenge offers $20,000 prizes to authors who create Creative Commons licensed textbooks. in topics ranging from art history to business management to mechanical engineering.
It is hosted by the Saylor Foundation, a group with a killer tagline - Harnessing Technology To Make Education Free. And if this post inspires you to write a textbook, enter it here.
