Class experience
US Grade 7 - 10
This course is made up of 5 classes. Each class will look at a member of the Cambridge spy ring, their personal history, involvement in World War II and espionage, and the times in which they lived. We will examine important world events like the abdication of King Edward VIII, the Great Depression, the rise of Nazism, the Spanish Civil War, the Outbreak of World War II, and the beginning of the Cold War. We will also look at important people, locations, and operations such as "Tube Alloys"....
This class is taught in English.
By the end of this course, learners will have examined the members of the Cambridge spy ring, what information they passed on, and the effects of their espionage. They will have been introduced to the British agency MI5 and MI6, and what these agencies did during World War II.
I hold a BA in History and am completing an MA in International Relations. I wrote my undergraduate thesis on Soviet espionage in the US, and have taught a variety of history courses on Outschool to middle and high school students.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
This class will discuss important events during World War II. Learners enrolled in this class do not need to have prior knowledge of the war (although it is certainly a bonus), but they will need to be comfortable talking about war. Also, members of the Cambridge Five were spies who betrayed their country. While the stories of spies is entertaining, it is important that students realize these were real people who betrayed their countrymen, and their actions impacted history.
This course is inspired by the writings of British author and historian Ben Macintyre, specifically his book "Spy Among Friends: Kim Philby and the Great Betrayal".
