OpenStax Astronomy Slide Presentations in pdf form
Unrestricted Use

Rating
0.0 stars

The slideshows that go with OpenStax Astronomy are PowerPoint, which is great for editing and improving, but a bit awkward for instructors who need to load MS PowerPoint in order to present. I used the cc-by license to place them on Wikiversity.

I also invite others to collaborate on developing OpenStax materials on Wikiversity and/or Miraheze.
