I have 30 years of teaching experience, which includes 25 years of teaching history and government to high school-age students.  I take special care to use historical evidence and facts when teaching history and especially marginalized groups and controversial topics. 

Students will be given assignments that may consist of reading parts of the text, reading documents, watching a video clip, or completing an assessment as part of that week's assignments.

The learner will be assessed based on performance on the assessments (quizzes and tests) as well as participation in interaction activities.

No live meetings, and an estimated 2 - 4 hours per week outside of class.
