Course Title: Foundations of America: Exploring Early American History Course Description: In "Foundations of America," students will embark on an immersive journey through the formative years of the United States, examining the pivotal events, figures, and ideologies that shaped the nation's identity. Through a series of engaging lectures, interactive materials, and thought-provoking discussions, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of early American history, from the age of exploration to the birth of a new nation. Although this course does not go into depth of Indigenous populations, it is important to view these events from a de-colonization perspective. Indigenous peoples lived in the Americas longed before the Europeans arrived. They had diverse populations and cultures. Upon the arrival of Europeans, many died from diseases. Many that survived disease dealt with years of enslavement and massacre at the hands of colonizers. Course Format: "Foundations of America" is structured as an asynchronous online course, allowing participants to engage with course materials and complete assignments at their own pace. Each week will feature a combination of pre-recorded lectures, reading assignments, multimedia resources, and discussion forums, providing a dynamic and interactive learning experience.

Orientación para padres
I want to inform you about the topics in this course that may involve sensitive or challenging subject matter. Throughout the course, your child will be exploring historical events such as war, The Boston Massacre, and colonization.
It's important to note that while studying The Boston Massacre, we will be delving into primary sources that reflect the language and emotions of the time period. One such phrase, "fire, damn you fire!", may appear in these materials. Please be assured that this language is only presented within the context of the historical event and is meant for educational purposes.
I understand that these topics may provoke strong emotions or questions from your child. My aim is to provide a safe and supportive learning environment where they can engage with these subjects critically and thoughtfully.
