Forget the "study of the past." From the creator and teacher of Big Picture History, Total History, and History Through Art comes a new series about the real meaning of history: understanding the world we live in. In this new series of lessons entitled "The Way We Live" Mr. Powell of www.HistoryAtOurHouse.com will show you how the history of human industry helps us to make sense of the world. No prior knowledge of the history of human industry is required at this initial level. The lesson will include a survey of the story of industrialization, including the incredible progress of computing, which has transformed the way we live. All families that participate in the live sessions will also receive permanent access to the Youtube screencast recording for repeat learning and enjoyment. It's never too late to start learning history properly once and for all! This is the insight into the way we live you've been looking for.
