Noba Project (www.nobaproject.com) is an OER psychology textbook. Noba offers a ready-made full textbook (https://nobaproject.com/textbooks/introduction-to-psychology-the-full-noba-collection) and a ready-made brief textbook (https://nobaproject.com/textbooks/discover-psychology-v2-a-brief-introductory-text). Faculty can select from among the many chapters to customize their own textbook - which is what I did.
For most of the chapters within Noba, there is a Cerego quiz. This is an adaptive learning technology that asks students to assess their mastery and then answer questions. There is no penalty for wrong answers and students can take as much time as they want with the quizzes. The quizzes rely on distributed practice to deepen learning. Students cannot complete the quizzes in one sitting. Students complete the free registration and receive reminders when it is time to review the text and pick up the quizzes again.
