Students will broaden their knowledge of the Court's history and sharpen critical thinking skills.

I have more than twenty years of experience as a history teacher. Specifically, I taught United States history and American Government. I gave extensive attention to covering the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and Supreme Court history in those classes. Numerous landmark cases were covered in great detail. I also taught a class titled Law and Order, in which students took part in mock trials.

Several cases covered in this class will examine racial discrimination (Plessy v Ferguson). These were and are significant milestones in America's progress towards equality for all. Cases such as Roe v. Wade and Obergefell v. Hodges will NOT be covered as I view them as inappropriate for this course's age range.

提供的家庭作業
There will not be assignments or assessments, but I encourage each student to participate in the class discussion and to share how each case has impacted their lives.
