1 Scott Gardner and Sue Gardner University of Nebraska-Lincoln April 11, 2018

2 Textbook for undergraduate and graduate students Collaboratively written Peer reviewed Kept as up to date as the authors would like Available free online or at-cost in hard copy Free to use by anyone as long as the use is noncommercial No charges nor payment to authors

3 A desire to assist students Technological capability Appeal by UNL administrators to create OERs Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, Open Educational Resources: A Catalyst for Innovation (2015)

4 Fostering new forms of learning for the 21st century Fostering teachers' professional development Containing educational costs Improving the quality of educational resources Widening the distribution of high quality educational resources Reducing barriers to learning opportunities

5 Creation: Authors, Reviewers, Editors Production: Editors, Copyeditor/Proofreader, Publisher Hosting and Distribution: Repositories, Printer lulu.com (at-cost)

6 Though cladistic concepts will be integrated, the book will be from the perspective of parasitologists, not cladists, so the organization of the groups will be justified but not claimed to be definitive

7 The book will be arranged in four parts: Part 1: Introductory Concepts Part 2: Endoparasites Part 3: Ectoparasites Part 4: Auxiliary Concepts

8 Auxiliary concepts will include: Medical parasitology Veterinary parasitology Wildlife parasitology Archaeoparasitology e-parasitology Other auxiliary sections can be added

9 Peer review: Rigorous, but open and collegial Translations: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French Versioning: Old versions of chapters may be held in an archive so they may be accessible

10 10-50 pages, 8.5 x 11 or A4 12-point Times New Roman, double-spaced Lots of color, grayscale, or BxW illustrations References: - Include lots of them, preferably with DOIs - Name-year in-line citation style - Journal of Parasitology style references

11 Chapter title (required): Section title (required, if applicable): Author(s) (required): Affiliation(s) (required): address(es) (required): Introduction to the chapter/section topic (required; images are optional):

12 Discuss the major features of the parasite(s) (may include morphological and/or molecular characters, required; images are optional): Discuss this organism/these organisms in relation to others in their group (may include the systematics and taxonomy, phylogenies, required; images are optional):

13 Discuss this organism/these organisms in relation to other organisms (may include information on the hosts, reservoirs, and vectors, life cycles, ecology, and biodiversity and biogeography, required; images are optional): Discuss the most important groups relative to any relevant aspect (required; images are optional):

14 Example: The Aspidogastrea (K. Rohde) Main characteristics Life cycles Taxonomy and phylogeny A countertrend to sacculinization Infection process and localisation in host, functional morphology Ecology References
