Texas Wesleyan’s new research and adoption tool arrives on campus March 2, and it’s not just a new way for ordering books.

Follett Faculty Discover is the smartest way to seek out, evaluate and adopt course materials. It immediately delivers that information to Follett Student Discover, making it easier than ever for your students to be prepared to succeed.

Virtual training will be held for all faculty in late February. Training dates and call-in information are below.

With Follett Faculty Discover, instructors can:

  •   Immediately adopt materials used previously, including adoptions from peers
  •   See other relevant materials for their course

  • Search and adopt non-traditional materials, including:
    • YouTube videos
