web-based resources make it possible to engage students with primary sources, regardless of their geographical location. I’ve developed extensive primary source links for the history of the American West at http://go.ncsu.edu/cowboys Please feel free to use these in your own teaching and suggest additions.
For examples of SoTL using these materials see Slatta, Guest editor, special issue on “Teaching about the West.” Journal of the West, 46: 2 (Spring 2007).
