A kickback to the teachers?
How?
I teach at multiple educational institutions and have never been offered a
kickback. How do I get in on this scam?
What the publishers do engage in is making materials for the instructors -
tests and online resources, usually of questionable quality but it makes
"teaching" easier. I rarely use such material and use off-the-shelf books or
make my own material.
