Left Field

So I totally went into left field and wrote a book I never thought I’d ever write—a textbook. Yes, yours truly has written an OER (open educational resource) textbook for a German 101 course.

Why? Because no textbook should cost over $40, let alone $250. I’ve been making my own materials for years, so why not combine them into a document, add some pictures and explanations, and give it to my students for free? Want to use my textbook? Go ahead. Here it is…and the good thing is that I can update it at any time! There’s no waiting around for five years for a new edition.

Here. Check it out: German 101
