The goal of this project is to develop infrastructure useful for sharing domain-specific course materials with collaborating Computer Science faculty sharing expertise in a particular domain. The centerpiece of the infrastructure is a free online-textbook; however the infrastructure also includes a membership-controlled area for course materials including projects, homeworks, experience reports, video lectures,and slides.This project will advance the state of the art for two relevant Computer Science textbooks, Operating Systems and Introduction to Performance. This content will serve as test material for a more general infrastructure to be developed for the purpose of developing Collaborative Faculty Textbook Communities. They key idea is to use the infrastructure to encourage and ease faculty contribution to, and adoption of, free online textbooks for their courses. The novel aspect is to focus on what the best infrastructure would be for a community of faculty, encouraging the longer-term maintenance and updating of the relevant course materials, and also encourage the participation of faculty with a high level of expertise and limited time.

这个项目的目标是开发一种基础设施，用于与协作的计算机科学教师共享特定领域的专业知识，从而共享特定领域的课程材料。基础设施的核心是免费的在线教科书；然而，基础设施还包括一个会员控制区域，用于课程材料，包括项目、作业、经验报告、视频讲座和幻灯片。这个项目将推动两本相关的计算机科学教科书——操作系统和性能导论——的发展。这些内容将作为测试材料，用于开发更通用的基础设施，以开发合作教师教科书社区。他们的主要想法是利用基础设施来鼓励和方便教师为他们的课程贡献和采用免费的在线教科书。新颖的方面是关注教师社区的最佳基础设施，鼓励长期维护和更新相关课程材料，并鼓励具有高水平专业知识和有限时间的教师参与。
