(FLEX START DATE APRIL 24-DECEMBER 31, 2023) Hello and welcome to Women's History: Inventors and Entrepreneurs! In this class, each week we will explore different women and their contributions to different fields. This is not a complete list of the women who's work will be highlighted. We will be looking at their lives, what inspired them, successes and failures, and the impact that they had...
Students will learn about women's history, how these women shaped their industry and society, and what are the steps for being an entrepreneur. Students will be working on different aspects of entrepreneurship, as well as exploring STEM oriented career fields.
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, organization, reading, and learning. You can usually find me in the middle of 2-3 books or watching a documentary. I am also an Outschool ACE Educator, which means that I continually seek out ways to improve my teaching skills and knowledge, as well as the learner experience. Some of the seminars/courses that I have attended in the past are: Foundations for Teaching and Learning About Native Americans; The Presence and Absence of Asian America: What Truths Lie Beyond the Headlines; Using the “Diary of Anne Frank” to Amplify Students’ Voices; Painting a Just Picture – Art and Activism.
Each week there will be a list of 3-7 discussion questions for students to answer. These are to be answered in the students own words (i'm interested in their thoughts and opinions.) There will also be a list of 3-5 homework ideas. Each student is to choose one that is of interest to them. They will either be short essay papers (1 page), short films to watch, or a project.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
No live meetings, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
In this class, there may be discussions of sexism, racism, and discrimination. All discussions 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.
Some of the sources used for this class are, but not limited to: Smithsonian Britannica National Geographic PBS Library of Congress
