Description
Class Experience
In this class we will explore the life and many contributions of Florence Nightingale. We will discuss her childhood, education, the state of the health care before her influence, what changes she made, and how her influence can still be seen today.
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 and learning. You can usually find me in the middle of 2-3 books or watching a documentary.
Each week, by Tuesday 9pm PST,- -I will email each student a link that weeks lecture. This will be on YouTube and is in a private account. -I will post to the classroom a list of 3-7 questions due the following Sunday. -There will also be a list of 2-5 research topics or projects, and each student will choose one that interests them. Answers for the research topics only have to be a paragraph or two. This is also due Sunday of each week. Homework can either be sent through the communication function of Outschool (email) or posted on the classroom page. Each project is be written clearly and with any references noted. (No cut and paste)
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
No live meetings, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
The topic of war and war related injuries will be discussed during this class. Florence made a huge impact during the Crimean war and we will discuss the state of health care before her arrival and afterwards. 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.
