Abstract :
Finding new course materials is a continual challenge for computer science faculty. Although some free, online collections exist, they are largely under utilized. This study is a work-in-progress that examines the utility of these repositories via a survey of North American faculty. It explores both their current practices for identifying new course materials and probes their perceptions of online repositories. Preliminary results indicate both low visibility and marginal utility. Suggestions for improvement are provided.
