I have been an educator on Outschool for 3 years. I have my MBA and MHA, both of which have taught me the value of asking questions and conducting research.

Each will there will be two assignments. The first is a list of 3-7 discussion questions. These are to be answered by the students in their own words based on their thoughts and opinions. The second assignment is a list of 3-5 homework projects. Students are to choose 1 each week that they find interesting. These could be short research papers (1 page), a short video to watch and review, or a project.

Each week, a list of homework questions will be posted to the classroom page. There will also be a list of 2-5 research/project topics that the student will choose from for that week. Both of these are due on the Saturday of that week. Students will have to do research on their own time. I will be available for questions 24-7.

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:Youtube

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

This is a non-partisan class. Certain topics may come up in regards to individuals personal political beliefs, but this will be approached in a straight forward manner.
