Abstract

Students report that they appreciate learning about and researching people who shared their experiences and backgrounds, yet they rarely hear their voices and experiences reflected in traditional textbooks. This presentation will showcase one professor's success using Design Thinking and Open Pedagogy to create open resources for US History classes in collaboration with students at a minority-majority college in Texas.
