Class experience
US Grade 8 - 11
In this fun class, students will learn about utilitarianism, consequentialism, deontology, teleology and many other ethical doctrines and political leadership styles. They will also encounter various forms of government and political ideologies. Each class focuses on chapters from several dystopian novels. Students choose one novel to read and the teacher will tie them all together in a comprehensive way. Please note that students should divide the number of chapters in the book they choose...
I am a retired Professor and High School teacher. I am also a practicing attorney in New York State. I taught Advanced Placement US Government, Advanced Placement Comparative Government and traditional High School Government for over ten years. I know it is important to introduce a fact based, non biased lesson to students that will foster discussions with their family. For twenty years I have had the opportunity to work with students from Pre-K through Graduate School in both a traditional learning atmosphere and those classes that deviate from neurotypical teaching. I held my teaching certification in World History/US History/Government and Economics for Middle and High School. My teaching philosophy is that all students are individuals and unique learners that must have a stimulating educational environment where they can grow physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. It is my desire to create this type of atmosphere where students can meet their full potential. I will provide a safe environment where students are invited to share their ideas and where mistakes are considered education victories. While incorporating the eight learning styles into each class, I believe that there are five essential elements that are conducive to learning. (1) The teacher's role is to act as a guide. (2) Students must have access to hands-on activities. (3) Students should be able to have choices and let their curiosity direct their learning. (4) Students need the opportunity to practice skills in a safe environment. (5) Technology must be incorporated into the school day.
Homework Offered
Students should divide their Chapters up over five weeks so they can complete the book by our last class. It is okay if they do not finish but helpful for discussion purposes if they do complete the text.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
