美國歷史：非裔美國男性發明家第 1 部分 Flex 課程

This class is a flexible schedule class covering 4 weeks. This class covers Black or African American history focusing on inventors. There are no live meetings to this class, but ample opportunities to interface and interact with other students from around the world.  While there are no live meetings, it is very important to watch the lessons and complete the assignments to get the most out of the course. Students will learn through video, PDF handouts and worksheet assignments. Handouts will be provided by the teacher. I will post a video lesson every Monday of myself reviewing the weeks objective utilizing PowerPoint slides. I will also post video links for the students to watch. Please be aware that while the video links have been screened, any link to an outside source could have ads that change daily. 

This flex class will be interactive in the following ways:
•	Students responding to other students' thoughts and observations about the inventors and their inventions within classroom portal.
•	Students using the record video to answer questions with the ability to upload the content for other students and the teacher to watch.
•	Students addressing the weekly discussion topic in the student portal.
