What does the History Department offer to help students review for the ExCET?
The History Department offers three main services to help students prepare for the TExES. First, Dr. Judy Ford offers a series of workshops during each long semester that focus on the styles of TExES multiple choice questions and strategies for answering those questions. These workshops do not contain specific content reviews. Second, under the direction of Mr. Gruver and the History Graduate Assistants, the History Department conducts a film series each semester that provides students with content from various TExES competencies. The film topics change each semester in order to provide students with a broader coverage of historical topics. Students should see the Graduate Assistants Office for the schedule of film presentations. Third, the History Department has a TExES Advisor to help students prepare for the TExES. Mr. Gruver can answer questions about the TExES itself, and he can tutor students if they are having difficulties in one area of the History or Composite Social Studies T
