and congratulations to the project PI @bryanmcgeary We hope to hear more about this project as it unfolds, Bryan!
It caught my eye as I was a small part of the [Open Homework Systems project at BCcampus](https://bccampus.ca/projects/archives/the-open-homework-systems-project/) and the person to contact there for more insight is @clintlalonde
It might be curious to hear of any other organizational efforts to implement the kinds of open source systems that provide students extra practice activities as a stand against the commercial systems that add more cost burdens to students.
But for now, go Big Ten! And look again, here is a fantastic effort co-lead by librarians.

This is really great to see @bryanmcgeary and I, too, would be interested to hear of any other efforts happening to help combat the cost to students of homework systems.
