Learners will have a clear understanding of the presented key figures, events, details, and effects.  Students will see historical events from multiple perspectives and acknowledge that there are multiple sides of history that defy the "traditional" historical viewpoint.  They will be able to summarize the main points discussed in each week's class: Christopher Columbus, Lewis and Clark, The Trail of Tears, and Pearl Harbor.  Students will demonstrate comprehension of materials while completing a weekly comic strip depicting the topics covered in class.

I have multiple degrees in history and have been tutoring the subject for the past five years.  I am comfortable with approaching sensitive material and explaining it in an age-appropriate manner.  My ethnic background also enables me to approach subject the matter from a different point of view.

This course is designed with various learner needs in mind.  There are NO tests, homework to be completed after class, or verbal participation.  This experience allows learners to work at their pace with additional support as needed.

This course was built off of a plethora of peer-reviewed academic sources that have an inclusive viewpoint.  These are some of the primary sources utilized.
