Interview with Flat World Knowledge CEO

Keith Hampson has posted a short interview with Jeff Shelstad, CEO of Flat World Knowledge. Flat World Knowledge is a fairly new open textbook company. From the article:

…we believe strongly that instructors should not have to take a step back in their quality of experience just to address the rising cost issue. We don’t believe many will. We think legislative and authoritative/administration involvement, while nice, is not really a path to change, especially in institutions where faculty independence remains an important goal.
