"Discover American Indian history in the United States from the earliest evidence of human habitation through first contact with Europeans, conflicts in the West, World War II and other key events in 20th-century U.S. history, the American Indian rights movement, and into the present day.

Archaeological finds, traditional stories, the writings of early European explorers, government documents and treaties, oral histories, photographs, the arts, newspaper articles and more will enrich your exploration of key issues in Native American history nationwide.

The course will proceed chronologically. Within each topical module you will have the opportunity to choose from several different geographically grouped assignments, allowing you to customize your own learning experience based on your interests, the demands of the curriculum, and your own priorities for teaching American Indian history.

For example, in any given unit, you may choose to focus on the Southwest, the Pacific Northwest, the Great Plains, the Northeast or the Southeast. You may either follow one geographical track throughout the course or mix up their selections to allow for a broader view of American Indian history."

"In the first two centuries after 1492, most colonies in the New World failed. This workshop explores why. We will read accounts of failures and successes and discuss what happened. How much did colonizers' expectations have to do with success or failure? Were the desires and power of local Indians the most important factors? How large a role did weather and climate play? Was luck the deciding factor? Should we be surprised that any succeeded?"

"Erika Doss will highlight the complexities surrounding government-funded art projects during the 1930s and discuss how American artist Maynard Dixon negotiated with New Deal tastemakers in his depiction of modern American Indians and the American West. In 1937, the Treasury Department's Section of Painting and Sculpture, a New Deal arts program, commissioned a two-panel mural for the Bureau of Indian Affairs offices in the Main Interior Building. Dixon was asked to depict 'themes taken from the activities' of the BIA. Following the lecture, visitors are invited to view Dixon's Indian and Soldier and Indian and Teacher murals in the Main Interior Building."
