This is part three of a three part series covering the History of the United States Government. This is a unique approach to studying US government and is not your typical Civics course! Though we will briefly discuss different aspects of government, such as what "democracy" means or how power is divided up, we will not spend much time focusing on the inner workings of US government. Instead, we will determine what democracy means by analyzing Thomas Paine's "Common Sense," Frederick Douglass's criticism of American Democracy, Susan B. Anthony's interpretation of the Constitution, JFK's beliefs on what the US should be doing for democracy, and Barack Obama's thoughts on how the US wasn't a perfect union just quite yet. If all three parts are taken, this is a full year course. There are in-class assignments each week. If a student completes all in class assignments, reading, and any homework, this three part class could be used a credit on a high school transcript depending on your state's homeschool requirements. This may also qualify as either a Civics or a US History course, depending on what your state's homeschool accepts for each subject. **Want to try a one-time class before committing to this 12-week class? I offer two trial classes that are structured very similarly to this course and would be a great way to see if my teaching style fits your learner! These are located at the following links: https://outschool.com/classes/battle-of-little-bighorn-trial-class-for-united-states-2UAshzBt#us1N2EG6kM and https://outschool.com/classes/analyzing-civil-war-photographs-trial-class-for-united-states-Evrv5D1d#us1N2EG6kM All of my classes, especially my US History classes, are inclusive and anti-racist. We will be covering tough subjects and tackling tough topics from the point of view of the people involved, particularly the marginalized groups involved. Each of the three parts of this course are structured the same but we will cover different topics. In each part, we will tackle two big aspects of US government, one for the first half and the other for the remaining half. Over those five or six week halves, we will work to analyze primary documents that span from the founding of the country to present day. Through reading documents, answering guiding questions, and class discussion, learners will gain an understanding of that aspect of US government. I have included a full breakdown of the topics we will cover below, along with probable assignments, but assignments are subject to change depending on time/pace once we start the class. Each week, materials will be posted inside the classroom for students to print or upload to the Kami App to be able to use them online without printing. Students will be given time during class to read the documents and answer questions. I strive to keep all work contained to class time, however, every once in a while we will run out of time and students will be asked to finish work for homework. Course Breakdown: Foreign Policy - Weeks 1-6 Week 1 -We will begin this week with a brief overview of foreign policy and will discuss under what circumstances student think the US should intervene in world events -Then we will look at a more contemporary president's foreign policy by reading Donald Trump's statement on bombing Syria in 2017 -George Washington's Neutrality lesson Week 2 -The Monroe Doctrine lesson -Manifest Destiny/Gast Painting lesson -Mark Twain and the Philippines lesson Week 3 -Woodrow Wilson's Neutrality lesson -FDR and WWII lesson Week 4 -Eleanor Roosevelt and the United Nations lesson -Truman Doctrine lesson Week 5 -Martin Luther King Jr's Opposition of Vietnam lesson -Kissinger, Nixon, and Allende lesson Week 6 -Bill Clinton and Genocide lesson -George W. Bush's War on Terror lesson Civil Liberties - weeks 7-11 Week 7 -We will begin this week by defining civil liberties and discussing whether there are times our liberties should be restricted -We will then look at a more contemporary president's take on restricting liberties by reading President Obama's remarks regarding gun violence after the Aurora movie theatre shooting -Declaring Independence lesson -Bill of Rights lesson Week 8 -John Adams and Restricting Freedom of Press lesson -Abraham Lincoln and Habeas Corpus lesson Week 9 -Carrie Nation's Temperance Activism lesson -Herbert Hoover's Bonus Army lesson -Executive Order 9066 lesson Week 10 -McCarthyism and Paul Robeson lesson -COINTELPRO lesson Week 11 -Black Panther Party and Reparations lesson -Patriot Act lesson Series End Review - week 12 Week 12 -This week we will do a review of the entire course by looking back at excerpts from all three parts and making connections between the themes. Even if a learner has not taken all three parts, they will still be able to participate in this week's class! **Note: It is imperative that students do the assigned work both inside and outside of class. Much of this work will be done in groups or pairs inside of class, so all students need to be willing to participate either through their microphone or by utilizing the chat in the classroom.**

As with any US History course, we will be covering topics like death, war, racism, slavery, and sexism. I will not shy away from these topics, but will help the students understand that though racism, slavery, sexism, etc. are part of the fabric of American History, they are not acceptable by our standards today.
受講に必要なもの
Students will be given pdfs each week that contain the in-class work and homework. These pdfs need to be printed or if the student prefers to type answers, pdfs can be uploaded to the Kami App website and students can type directly onto the pdfs.

My Masters degree is in American Studies and I spent a great deal of my graduate studies focusing on the Civil War, Westward Expansion, and the Industrial Revolution. I have been teaching this course in person to homeschoolers for a year and have been teaching History on Outschool for almost as long. I am constantly reading new works from prominent historians and I attend professional development courses each summer through The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, which helps me keep up to date on historical scholarship.
