Michigan Colleges Online is an initiative of the Michigan Community College Association and the 28 Michigan community colleges. The MCO provides this opportunity for the member institutions as a way to increase student success and completion, reduce costs for students and allow for inter-institutional collaboration with faculty. Check the Hub to browse resources recommended/created by faculty at 28 other Michigan colleges, search the broader OER Commons, or contribute to the HFC section of the hub.
Don't forget that you can also use HFC library content in your courses. Some library content is freely available for you to download and put right into your HFC Online course. Other library content can be used by putting a link in your HFC Online course. If you have any questions on how to use library owned content, please contact Tessa Betts (tbetts2@hfcc.edu).
