This is my praise and critique of the first chapter, "Indigenous America" of the popular open educational resource (OER), The American Yawp, published by Stanford University. I'm reading examples of good OERs like this one as I write my own.

MakingHistory
Making History is the top-level thing I do, as a historian, teacher, and writer. I create content, based on either original primary research or to present the findings of other historians to my students. This channel will cover several topics (arranged in playlists) such as note-taking, research, and writing tools and techniques, history I'm teaching at Bemidji State University, research and writing projects I'm working on, Open Education techniques and resources I'm creating, and reflections on the ways that history helps us understand our current world.
