Class Experience
When you think of Paris, France, more often than not, the image of the Eiffel Tower Comes to mind. In this class, we will learn about Niagara Falls, using the "Where Is the Eiffel Tower" book by Dina Anastasio as a basis for our studies. It is not required to have this book for class, but some learners may find it useful to read along with each lesson. In this 5 week class, we will learn: Class 1 - A brief history of France and a look at it's culture; Class 2 - A look at the Galerie des...
Students will learn a brief history of France, the definition and examples of engineering, how the tower was built, and the different ways it has been used in history.
I have been an educator on Outschool since February of 2018. I have my MBA and MHA, both of which have taught me the value of conducting research and asking questions. I have a passion for history, organization, reading, and learning. You can usually find me in the middle of 2-3 books or watching a documentary. I am also an Outschool ACE Educator, which means that I continually seek out ways to improve my teaching skills and knowledge, as well as the learner experience. Some of the seminars/courses that I have attended in the past are: Foundations for Teaching and Learning About Native Americans; The Presence and Absence of Asian America: What Truths Lie Beyond the Headlines; Using the “Diary of Anne Frank” to Amplify Students’ Voices; Painting a Just Picture – Art and Activism.
Each week, students will have different homework assignments, from worksheets, building a 3D model of the tower out of paper, an engineering project to build an Eiffel Tower that is as tall as they are, and more.
No live meetings, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
This class will utilize Youtube videos for sharing of lecture videos, as well as supplemental lessons. All Youtube videos are embedded into the Outschool platform. This class may also utilize Kahoot. Learners will be given a direct link and game pin to play.
Some of the sources used for this class are, but not limited to: Smithsonian Britannica National Geographic PBS Library of Congress
