Governments ‘Round the World is a series in which we will explore how governments in different countries operate differently from government in the United States. We will discuss the different roles (the Prime Minister, the King, the Speaker of the House of Commons), how and when elections occur, and why the “Westminster System” has lasted for so long. Topics include: -How is a Parliament different from Congress? -How is a Prime Minister different from a President? -What exactly is “His Majesty’s Government?” -How often are elections? -What’s the deal with the King? This is an interactive class which utilizes the question and answer format, collaborative discussions, and student observations. Each learner should be prepared to participate in order to get the most from the class – students can participate verbally or in a chat with the teacher. No prior knowledge or experience is needed, but we will draw on any knowledge or experience that students bring to class. In order to facilitate learning and maintain a classroom free of distraction, no filters will be permitted, no backgrounds may be used (except for blur), and no emojis may be used other than a raised hand. After learner verification, video can be on or off. Chat will be closed except for student/teacher messaging.

Orientación para padres
We will not discuss current politics or political opinions in this class, only the history and institutions of the US and UK governments. My own opinions will not be discussed at all in this class. Any questions from learners that raise political issues or discussions will be gently redirected as the discussion will only focus on history and institutions of the US and UK governments. Any questions from learners regarding the subject matter can be asked orally, or can be asked in the chat, but I will answer questions orally for the benefit of the entire class.
Recursos externos

Fuentes
We will refer to the US and UK Constitutions in an age-appropriate manner.
