Description

Overview:
Exploring American Government is a workbook aimed at improving student and faculty experiences with open educational resources (OER) designed for undergraduate American government courses. The first pages of Exploring American Government begin by motivating and orienting students to learn about politics. Instructors will recognize the familiar layout of the following chapters. We begin by encouraging students to assess their existing knowledge of the subject and evaluate contemporary problems of civic engagement and challenges for the digital age. The following chapters seek to prepare students for informed participation, exploring topics such as constitutional development, federalism, civil liberties and civil rights, participation, public opinion, media, and institutions. Topic by topic, the assignments in the workbook help students discover new sources of information, retain knowledge about how the government works, and practice their critical thinking skills.
