Description
Class Experience
Students will take in-depth look at not only the different personalities of the men who have served as president, but will also learn about the policies, conflicts, and issues that have shaped American 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 and learning. You can usually find me in the middle of 2-3 books or watching a documentary.
Each week, I will post to the classroom a list of 3-7 questions (one for each video) 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 on Sunday of each week.
No live meetings, and an estimated 2 - 4 hours per week outside of class.
In this class, we will be walking through U.S. History. Topics such as discrimination, war, slavery, and death will be covered. All discussions of such topics will be at an age appropriate level. 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.
