At SHSU, several professors have taught sections of College Mathematics, Elementary Functions, Calculus I, II, and III, Discrete Mathematics, Linear Algebra, Introduction to Math Thought, Algebraic Structures, and several graduate, honors, and special topics courses using open materials. Notably, professor of Mathematics Ken Smith designed MATH 1410 Elementary Functions around an open textbook and has taught using these resources for many years...

It supports everything you would need up through calculus and linear algebra, including graphing and checking for algebraically equivalent answers. There's also a whole community of people from around the world writing and sharing new questions every day that any professor in the system can use for their classes. It's better than any paid online homework system I've tried, and best of all, it's free.'
