Peer reviewedRiney-Kehrberg, Pamela – Teaching History: A Journal of Methods, 1997
Describes an assignment for an undergraduate U. S. history class that combined role playing and research. The class was directed to use depression-era materials (newspapers, magazine articles, pamphlets, cookbooks) and plan a menu to feed a family of five on $2.50 a week (the amount provided by relief agencies).
