Summer 2019

This summer I've decided to go 100% OER in all of my classes. A relatively easy task for my US history courses, but slightly more difficult for my Mexican American history classes in large measure because I have only collected one OER textbook for Mexican American history and I prefer to use several in order to present a more balanced look for my students.

Nevertheless, I dug deep into the net and discovered a plethora of ancillaries, articles and essay collections that will dovetail nicely with the OER textbook A History of the Mexican American People by Julian Samora. The semester has not started and already I've received feedback from one of my Mexican American history students: "Thank you for not making us pay."
