What are my options for submitting course material adoptions? • Online Quick Adoption Form - fill out one screen, submit, you’re done!

Before You Begin No matter which adoption method you use to submit your adoptions, please answer the following questions in the corresponding Message Box: • Is there any reason we should not sell used or digital (eBook) copies of the text(i.e. tear-out worksheets, no laptops allowed in class, etc…)? • Are there any specific supply items required (i.e. kits, goggles, calculators, etc…)? • If the book contains a CD, is it required? • Will students need a Response Card NXT (Turning Technologies Clicker) unit for the course? If so, is it okay to list the smartphone/laptop app version as an option? • If a coursepack is used, will there be updates and when? • If you are requesting a package, please provide ISBNs for each item in the package and confirm all parts will be used
Before You Begin For courses where several sections use the same item(s), please submit an adoption for one of the sections or “Section” type below, if applicable, and note the corresponding CLS numbers in the Message Box. We can connect the sections together for you in our system upon receipt. • “All” = All lecture and online sections of the course this semester will use the same material(s) • “All Lecture” = All lecture sections of the course this semester will use the same material(s) • “All Online” = All online sections of the course this semester will use the same material(s)
