** Welcome! **
The goal is to build a site where teachers and others can find resources, learning objects, and lesson ideas to teach US History without the need to rely on a textbook. Content will come from the web, through links primarily, with a heavy emphasis on primary sources and multiple perspectives. I expect that a majority of the lessons will involve technology, particularly student-centered technology. If your students don't have adequate access to web-based computing, please suggest ways that the lessons can be adapted for outdated modes of learning.

The site is currently open publicly in the spirit of collaboration - I hope it always stays that way. If you have comments or concerns about the site, please email Cory Little at cory.little@nebo.edu
