Summer Project

I am a supporter (and author) of Open Educational Resources. OER is more than just free textbooks. OER helps make higher education more affordable and increases student success and student retention.

I have been writing an OER textbook covering both parts of the US History survey classes. This summer I will be assigning various chapters in my Hist 1301 (US history to 1877) classes. I'll then obtain feedback from my students, make necessary edits, then assign the whole textbook for my Fall Hist 1301 classes.

I do wish that Rice would allow for customization of the urls. First world problem.
