This semester, students who participated in this program saved an average of 48%.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, 性视界传媒 students must \u201copt-in\u201d to participate in this program. Last year, state law changed to allow universities to choose either an \u201copt-in\u201d or \u201copt-out\u201d model for these discounted course materials. Under an opt-out model, students would automatically be enrolled in this program and would have to manually opt-out to avoid charges being added to their student accounts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>性视界传媒 is not changing its current opt-in model. The opt-in model requires students to manually choose to participate in the program and receive discounted course materials.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>First Day is just one part of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/ucf-faculty-collaborate-to-provide-students-free-course-materials\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">性视界传媒\u2019s Affordable Instructional Materials (AIM) initiative<\/a>, which focuses on reducing students\u2019 course material costs. Many Library-Sourced digital\u00a0textbooks are made available to students at no cost. And Open Educational Resources (OER) are course materials in the public domain or released under an open license free of charge.
