Whether you’re spending the summer resting and relaxing after an unprecedented year, catching up with family, reading a new book, or diving into some July excitement, we hope it’s treating you well! The OER Project Online Teacher Community has been abuzz with activity this summer. Check out a few of the latest and greatest discussions below.
Just Mercy book club
You’re invited! Catch Bryan Stevenson’s keynote speech by registering for the upcoming, free, virtual OER Conference for the Social Studies from August 3–5.

New discussion questions will be posted every Thursday leading up to the conference.
