If you are looking for the finished Geography textbook, BC in a Global Context, it is available in our open textbook library.
On June 9th, 2014 a group of educators and technologists gathered at the University of British Columbia with a unique challenge; create a first year university level Geography open textbook in just four days.
The collaborative authoring model is known as a book sprint. Inspired by code sprints from the software development world, the goal of a book sprint is to create a book from scratch in a very short time frame.
The event was facilitated by BookSprint, and organized by BCcampus.
