State honors BGSU biologist with Faculty Innovator Award
Creating a free, online textbook used by students in his Animal Behavior class has earned Dr. Robert Huber, biology, one of
the inaugural 10 Faculty Innovator Awards from the University System of Ohio (USO).
Huber and his fellow recipients were honored March 24 in Columbus, where they received the $1,000 cash award for using technological
innovation to reduce the cost of textbooks to students. They were recognized by Gov. Ted Strickland and the Ohio House and
Senate, as well as by Eric Fingerhut, chancellor of the Ohio Board of Regents.
In addition to the textbook posted at Wikibooks—http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Animal_Behavior—Huber “provides additional course material at no cost to students, including online media and lecture-note archives,” the
USO points out in its commendation.
