Class Experience
This flexible schedule class will explore the 20th century United States history and how this one small century held world changing events! As a flexible course, students will not meet live! Each week will follow a flexible schedule. Topics we will cover over the course of six weeks: Week One: 1950-1959 Week Two: 1960-1969 Week Four: 1970-1979 Week Five: 1980-1989 Week Six: 1990-2000 Students will demonstrate their learning through participation in the weekly classroom activities (no live meetings). *This is a flexible schedule class. Each lesson will be delivered via a prerecorded video that will be uploaded into the classroom every week. Each week, students will be assigned an activity to complete related to the prerecorded video. Each student will be required to comment on peer activity postings at least once each week, as directed by the activity, throughout the course in order to to develop a sense of community in the class. The instructor will be available to help and will provide individual feedback throughout the course. Such activities can include but not limited to: PowerPoint presentations, research over era's in the 20th century, and written responses.

Teacher expertise and credentials
My degree is in History with an emphasis in American History. While studying in my undergrad I specifically took a course based on all eras of American History. I have successfully taught my own students in the physical classroom for the past two years over topics that will be discussed in this course!
My minor in my degree is also in Social Sciences. I have taken multiple courses in psychology, sociology and the study of people. This allows me to gauge when a student may need. If your student may need additional emotional, mental or physical assistance I am certified by my state to do so with my Special Education licensure.
