I have a Masters Degree in Education and have been teaching in public school for thirty years.
This is a course I developed and taught via distance learning over 20 years ago. I am well versed in the content. I have over twenty years of experience teaching social studies, including US History and History of the 60s and 70s. My content knowledge on this topic runs particularly deep, as it is a passion of mine. 

Homework Offered
At the completion of each weekly class, students will be given an assignment to show what they’ve learned or to extend their learning even further by creating a virtual collage, a mind map, a timeline of events, or a written or visual representation of the content that was covered.  These assignments will be used as the review that starts the next class period. It can take 30 minutes or it could take hours, depending on how in depth the student wants to go,
0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Students will receive informal feedback throughout the course with a written assessment summary at the completion of the course.
