Class experience
I have designed this course as a college preparatory class. We will learn about the physical, political, and cultural geography of multiple continents worldwide. I have dedicated many hours and designed the curriculum to meet the Massachusetts Department of Education High School Standards for College Readiness and Career Success. Massachusetts is the #1 ranked state in the country for educational success in high school and higher education.
I love to make classes fun and engaging...This class is taught in English.
- Students develop skills in: -critical thinking, -spatial recognition, -cartography, -understanding scientific and statistical data, -cultural education and sensitivity, -people skills, -APA formatting, -and writing a college-level essay.
I have the credentials to teach social studies and science in any grade. I have a degree in math and one in science. I am furthering my education by obtaining a third specialty in education at MSU. I have taken World History 1, Western Civilization, World Geography, Psychology, and Human Growth and Development classes that have given me the skills to present sensitive topics respectfully and educationally. I have taught high school students globally in these subjects for many years and have led many class discussions about sensitive issues. I have lots of experience controlling a classroom environment in a way where every student feels heard but understands that they must maintain respect and an open mind.
I have taught History, Social Studies, Biology 1, 2, Earth Science, and Geography in high school. I have also assisted and overseen students during STEM competitions. A blank map printout that I will send to every student. A writing utensil and a notebook to take notes.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
In the class section about the continent of Africa, I will shed an educational light on the truth of the African slave trade and how its effects have impacted its geography in every way. This video talks about the things African citizens had to endure during the Transatlantic Slave Trade and how this has affected Africa. I will show a TedEd video from YouTube entitled "The Atlantic slave trade: What too few textbooks told you" - by Anthony Hazard. You do not need an account for this video, and I will only use this video for screen share in class.
I will share this video to educate my class about history's impacts on every aspect of physicality, politics, and culture. This video is from a very reputable source. Here's a little more about Dr. Anthoney Hazard.
Tony Hazard is currently an assistant professor in the Ethnic Studies department with a courtesy appointment in the History department at Santa Clara University. Dr. Hazard has been a postdoctoral fellow in Science in Human Culture at Northwestern University, a Library Resident Fellow at the American Philosophical Society, a Graduate Associate at the Center for the Humanities at Temple University, and a Visiting Assistant Professor of History at Northwestern University.
