I studied history with an emphasis in art history as an undergraduate at the University of California, Santa Barbara. I took extensive classes in African studies and American History, and one course specifically on the topic of marginalized people entitled "Voices of a Stranger". In order to further my understanding of world history, studied abroad in both London and Paris, travelling extensively through Europe to see historical sites personally. My love of history and geo-political issues led me to recieve a doctorate in law. Additionally, I have increased my learning of the power of art for both memory and healing by earning a certificate in therepeudic art .
Learners will be required to use Nearpod to access interactive lessons. *Since this class requires the use of Nearpod, each learner must be able to use the features of Nearpod, including, typing or audio recording responses on the keyboard and using drawing tools onscreen. Lessons can be accessed through a tablet or smartphone. No account is required* Each week learners will be able to use any art supplies they choose.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Please be advised that this class often discusses the sensitive topics of war and slavery. The early modern history of the world is a time when western societies colonized many continents and enslaved and/or otherwise mistreated the indigenous people. I do not discuss the specifics of these topics, as the lessons are meant to be introductory for elementary students. I do encourage learners to consider the motivation for these conflicts and discuss whether they are “fair”. Objectivity is my highest priority when teaching history. Each lesson will provide information from multiple perspectives. This class is not intended to be an opinion course, and will focus only on facts. Discussion among students on each week’s topic is encouraged. I believe introducing world history broadly to elementary students prepares them for more in-depth study in middle school and beyond. *Since this class requires the use of Nearpod, each learner must be able to use the features of Nearpod, including, typing or audio recording responses on the keyboard and using drawing tools onscreen.
