1-2 horas por semana. During our practical application Live classes learners will work together in pairs or groups to ask and answer questions and explore current events as they relate to the geography and history presented in class. Learners are expected to watch the Flex video lectures and activities provided on Thursdays before the following Tuesday's class as they will be referenced and will often provide the theoretical underpinning needed for the practical application classes. There will be 3 questions or a short activity provided for each Flex video that students will be expected to complete and submit by the following Monday at 8pm Eastern to show they have completed the Flex video lecture or activity. They will have a final geography and travel-related project to complete outside of class time and submit by the last class of the course.Evaluación
Learner progress will be evaluated according to the US Common Core Standards and National Standards of Social Studies for Geography adopted by most states. Feedback will be provided in an ungraded learner report or graded report card within 1-2 weeks after class ends. All learners will be provided with a non-graded learner report showing participation and completion of lessons and assignments - graded report cards available upon request.Calificación

This is a revision to my previous and multiple geography classes offered on Outschool - World Geography and Cultures (Parts 1-5) which ran from 2019-2022. Even if your learner took this previously from ages 11-14 they will find a lot of new material and methods included since it is designed for older learners and more comprehensive standards. This is a 27 week class - that provides 52 lessons - to maximize the amount of learning available to students during the traditional school year. It will provide time for individual work as well as group activities, lectures and student discussions and debate. The price is for the entire course of 52 lessons over the 27 week period of the course (about $9 per lesson.) There are breaks for holidays built into the schedule and it will run from September - Early May. You can see the full schedule below. This LIVE and FLEX HYBRID class will be utilizing the C3 Framework (College, Career and Civil Life) from the National Council for the Social Studies in the United States. It will cover three of the four core disciplines of geography, history, civics and a brief introduction to global economics. Through live lectures (Tuesday) and pre-recorded lectures (Thursday), class discussions, group games and activities and "beyond the classroom" projects, learners will have the opportunity to achieve all the standards outlined in the C3 Framework for grades 9-12 learners in social studies. Here is what learners can expect from this class: 9/5/23 Live Tuesday Geography Intro to class/geographic thinking 9/7/23 Flex Thursday Geography Recording - Intro to maps 9/12/23 Live Tuesday Geography Practical application - maps 9/14/23 Flex Thursday Geography Recording - Intro to Earth and physical geography 9/19/23 Live Tuesday Geography Practical application - physical geography 9/21/23 Flex Thursday Geography Recording - Intro to human geography 9/26/23 Live Tuesday Geography Practical application - human geography 9/28/23 Flex Thursday Geography Recording - Overview of the physical geography of Africa and Southwest Asia (Middle East) 10/3/23 Live Tuesday World History History of Mesopotamia, Egypt and African Empires 10/5/23 Flex Thursday World History Recording - History of the Abrahamic religions 10/10/23 Live Tuesday Geography Practical application - geopolitics of the Abrahamic religions 10/12/23 Flex Thursday Geography Recording - Overview of the physical geography of Asia 10/17/23 Live Tuesday World History History of India, Southern and Southeast Asia 10/19/23 Flex Thursday World History Recording - History of China, Japan, The People's Republic of Korea and the Republic of Korea 10/24/23 Live Tuesday Geography Practical application - geopolitics of the region 10/26/23 Flex Thursday Geography Recording - Overview of the physical geography of Europe, Russia and the Central Asian Republics 10/31/23 Live Tuesday World History History of Europe Part 1 - Ancient Greece and Rome 11/2/23 Flex Thursday World History Recording - History of Europe Part 2 - Ancient Greece and Rome 11/7/23 Live Tuesday World History History of Russia/Central Asia Republics 11/9/23 Flex Thursday World History Recording - Intro to Colonization 11/14/23 Live Tuesday World History Overview of Colonization into Africa, Australia and the Americas Holiday Break 11/15/23 - 1/8/24 - No work expected 1/9/24 Live Tuesday Review Welcome back - Class review 1/11/24 Flex Thursday Geography Recording - Overview of the physical geography of Oceana/Pacific Islands 1/16/24 Live Tuesday Geography History of Australia/NZ & Practical application - geopolitics of colonization on Australia/NZ 1/18/24 Flex Thursday World History Recording - History of colonization in Africa 1/23/24 Live Tuesday Geography Practical application - geopolitics of colonization on Africa today 1/25/24 Flex Thursday Geography Recording - Overview of the physical geography of South America, Central America and the Caribbean 1/30/24 Live Tuesday World History History of colonization in the Americas 2/1/24 Flex Thursday World History Recording - History of South America 2/6/24 Live Tuesday World History History of Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean 2/8/24 Flex Thursday World History Recording - History of North America - Indigenous Americans (virtual field trips to indigenous sites) 2/13/24 Live Tuesday World History History of North America - Canada (virtual field trips to Acadian Cultural Site) 2/15/24 Flex Thursday US History Recording - Colonial America (virtual field trip to Jamestown) 2/20/24 Live Tuesday US History Enslavement in the USA - compare and contrast enslavement and legacy at US Plantations (virtual field trip to Evergreen Plantation, Monticello and Mount Vernon) 2/22/24 Flex Thursday US History Recording - The Civil War 2/27/24 Live Tuesday Geography Reconstruction and today 2/29/24 Flex Thursday US History Recording - History of the 1900s - WW1, WW2, Vietnam, Korea and Afghanistan 3/5/24 Live Tuesday US History Civil Rights (virtual field trips to civil rights sites) 3/7/24 Flex Thursday US History Recording - Civil Rights (virtual field trips to civil rights sites) 3/12/24 Live Tuesday Geography Practical application - Civil Rights then and now 3/14/24 Flex Thursday Review Recording - Review Activity 3/15- 4/1/24 Spring Break - No work expected 4/2/24 Live Tuesday Economics Intro to Economics - Practical application of economics 4/4/24 Flex Thursday Civics Recording - Intro to world governments 4/9/24 Live Tuesday Civics Intro to the US Government 4/11/24 Flex Thursday Civics Recording - The Executive Branch 4/16/24 Live Tuesday Civics Intro to and practical application - The Legislative Branch 4/18/24 Flex Thursday Civics Recording - The Judicial Branch 4/23/24 Live Tuesday Civics Checks and balances and democracy in the world today 4/25/24 Flex Thursday Geography Recording - Intro to History of Antarctica and Climate Change 4/30/24 Live Tuesday Geography World culture and the importance of travel 5/2/24 Flex Thursday Geography Recording - Travel project 5/7/24 Live Tuesday Final Class Review and close class

Lista de útiles escolares
This course is being drawn from facts from a World Cultures and Geography curriculum, my own Virtual Field Trips from my travels and the C3 Framework Standards. Any informational materials needed by students will be provided by the teacher. A student may need to do research on their own to complete an assignment but information will be freely available on safe websites such as YouTube, Google Earth and National Geographic. Students may need to access items for practical projects such as poster board, computer paper, writing and drawing utensils, glue, etc.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
As a National Geographic Certified Educator, Professional Youth Worker and project-based educator by training and experience, as well as an experienced Outschool Educator since 2019 this class is perfect for my skills and interests in bringing these topics alive for your learner. I have over 15 years experience bringing complex (and frankly sometimes boring) topics to life for learners ages 11-18.
I have a Master’s of Arts in Youth Work and Community Development from DeMontfort University in Leicester, England. Courses covered included Theory and Practice of Youth Work (how to work effectively with teens and tweens), Theory and Practice of Community Development (how to empower community members to achieve their goals), Social Disaffection and Exclusion in Youth Work (how young people, and other marginalized groups, are excluded in society), Research Methods (ethical research standards) and Anti-Oppressive Practice (understanding the internalization of oppression at the personal, cultural and social levels in society). My degree also included practical field work in youth work and community development and a dissertation.
In addition to having my Master’s degree I have a personal interest in Geography and History and working with marginalized groups, including underserved youth in the UK, Rwandan refugees and the youth in public housing communities in the US. I have travelled extensively worldwide and lived in different cultures taking my Geographical understanding beyond the textbook. I have the research skills from my Master’s to do ethical and complete research to go beyond the “classic history” to find out the real story by using texts that include BIPOC authors. I have the experience and knowledge to handle questions and these subjects in an age appropriate, historically accurate and sensitive way.
I'm excited about the opportunity to share my love of cultures and geography with learners. I'm an enthusiastic teacher and plan my classes to include practical educational experiences.
