ZTC助学金和教师信息
ZTC@LMC课程
LMC has been awarded grant funds by the state legislature to develop and implement ZTC degrees or certificates. 这项拨款的目的是,“……reduce the overall cost of education for students and decrease the time it takes students to complete degree programs offered by community colleges. ”
ZTC@LMC is a self-paced 帆布 course designed to support faculty in making their courses ZTC with the grant funds awarded by the state. Faculty who enroll in the course and complete all requirements are eligible for a stipend.
为什么ZTC ?
The District OER Council conducted a districtwide student textbook survey most recently in the fall of 2025 to understand how textbook cost affects our students here at LMC and our sister colleges. The data collected suggests that textbook cost remains a 澳门威尼斯人网上赌场 barrier to students.
- (52.1%) of LMC students are unable to afford all of their textbooks within the first three weeks of class
- 31.7%的人表示为了支付教科书而加班
- 21.8%的学生表示上课减少了
- 15.4%的人表示为了支付课本而不吃饭
“…[I've had] to receive W's on my transcripts because I could not afford the required texts/math homework sites."
“我收集垃圾(来支付教科书费用)。”
"My personal experience as [a] low-income student purchasing a costly book that was way out of my budget impacted me that month tremendously... I was unable to fill up my gas tank 澳门威尼斯人网上赌场 is not cheap and I was unable to buy some necessary groceries as well. 那个月我的饮食包括鸡蛋、米饭和金枪鱼罐头。 And at some point eggs was the only thing I had."
"When teachers give free online materials or OER textbooks, it really helps students like me who have families and other expenses."
“…我会找ZTC的课程,为了省钱,我更喜欢上这些课程。”
