This requires students to search for the answer to this question using data from different governmental sources. Then to check this data, the students create their own data set from the community they live in.

From the data set, other supporting and compelling questions arise, and the students begin to find problems about voting in their community. The students write an essay answering the compelling question. Students develop an action plan and carry it out after completing dimension four communicating the conclusions found through their inquiry. The students then carry out their plan that answered the question: Why Vote? Although the paragraphs seem to make the inquiry simple and quick, it is not.

Inquiry is messy and sometimes very frustrating. Some questions that arise are hard to answer or cannot be answered. Students must have the space and time to follow the inquiry to the end. This does take many days but with the right amount of planning it will fit with pre-made units already in the curriculum.

As a side note, from the many classrooms I have observed, including my own, when this framework is presented, the middle or high school students love it. They get very excited to see their plan take root and feel pride in their accomplishments as developing citizens.

They also learn to compromise and evaluate their own thinking and work with others. It is a truly a collaborative process. A hard process, a learning process, but a very rewarding process. C3 is an inquiry framework from NCSS that takes the students through a hook of interest to implementation of action in four dimensions.

Through the process, students learn a variety of historical thinking skills, collaboration, resilience, evaluation, writing, and how to develop questions and research answers.

Having the students move through this process is what Dewey may have envisioned in How We Think. Getting the students attention, teaching content, facilitating student learning, and watching students complete a plan of action to implement it can be the spark students need to develop as a citizen and start to make change in home town communities.

Herczog, M. Historical Thinking Skills. L paragraph. National Council for the Social Studies. Background: Short History of Civic Education. Public schools were established with the goal of creating informed citizens. Civic literacy was seen as essential to maintaining a representative democracy and the schools were viewed as the place for young people to learn about their government.

Until the s, it was common for schools to have civics courses in upper elementary and middle school classes, as well as a separate, required course in civics and government in high school. By the s, the civic mission of schools was basically abandoned in favor of preparing a new generation of skilled workers.

The No Child Left Behind Act in accelerated this push with the hope that test scores in reading and math would predict and improve college and workplace performance. Meanwhile, national assessments have shown how little our young people know about government or the role of a citizen in a democracy.

While math and reading skills have improved since , less than a quarter of students demonstrated proficiency on the National Assessment of Educational Progress NAEP in Civics in , , , or Yet, for example, in , only 50 percent of eighth grade students understood that the U. Congress has the primary legislative power to pass bills.

With funding from the Carnegie Corporation of New York, a nationwide coalition to study and reinvigorate the civic mission of schools was formed in By , thirty states had a required civics course. But, there was no requirement for civics at any grade level in New Jersey. It was left to local discretion. With funding from the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the Fund for New Jersey, a New Jersey Coalition to Support the Civic Mission of Schools the Coalition —a statewide partnership of educators, parents, school administrators, business leaders, legislators and others interested in the future of our civic education and our democracy—was created.

Several statewide conferences were held resulting in the recommendation that all New Jersey public school districts be required to have a course of study in civics. Only three states Utah, Missouri and Tennessee required a semester of financial literacy at the time, while 18 other states required that personal finance be incorporated into other subjects.

The State Board of Education added a semester of financial literacy to the high school requirements but did not include a semester of civics. After further discussion, the Coalition concluded that perhaps the better place for a required civics course was in middle school. By age 11 or 12 sixth or seventh grade , students have the ability to do the higher order thinking necessary for a rigorous, relevant, reflective course in civics, and students at this age are more open to attitudinal changes than at older ages.

By , forty other states had a required course in civics. The Center argued that the social studies standards were written within a chronology, and that many basic civic concepts such as the purpose of government, the basis of authority and its abuse, privacy, judicial review, the common good, and enlightened self-interest were not included within the historical framework of standard 6.

However, once it was clear that Governor Christie did not support the idea, the bill was no longer pursued by its legislative sponsors. Meanwhile, as the center in American politics seemed to split into two warring factions and faith in government plummeted, the momentum to promote and reinvigorate the civic mission of schools as a response was building both nationally and in New Jersey, with numerous articles in newspapers and law and policy reviews.

In , Senator Shirley Turner introduced a bill to require a course of study in civics in middle schools. Other legislators were concerned that civic education should not end in middle school.

Senator Troy Singleton had introduced a bill to require that civics be taught in high school. The Center noted that N. To address both the middle and high school concerns, the two bills were merged into a substitute bill, S, sponsored by Senators Turner, Singleton and numerous other cosponsors, to require a course in civics in middle school beginning with the school year and directing the Center to provide professional development and resources for middle AND high school teachers.

Civics must be more than how government functions. Civic education is seen by Americans of all political stripes as the most positive and impactful lever to strengthen national identity. However, while 42 states New Jersey will make it 43 require at least one civics course, few incorporate proven pedagogical principles like classroom-based deliberation and decision-making, critical discussion of current events, simulations of democratic processes, guided debates and deliberations, project-based learning, service learning or media literacy.

The goal, however, is not simply content knowledge about how government works, but also an understanding of the values and ideals that underlie our system of government, and, probably most importantly, the role of the citizen in a democratic society. The focus is on developing critical thinking skills and civic dispositions in addition to civic knowledge, consistent with many of the student performance expectations in the New Jersey Student Learning Standards, which are also to go into effect starting in September If the goal is for our young people to become informed, active citizens, they need instruction about how government functions and about the role of the citizen, political participation and deliberation, democratic principles, and civic mindedness.

Our young people need to develop critical thinking skills so that they know how to examine and evaluate evidence to determine what supports fact-based truth. They need to develop communication skills so that they are able to civilly discuss controversial issues and to influence public policy.

Our future citizens need to develop civic dispositions so that they appreciate WHY they should be involved in influencing public policy for the common good. To achieve this goal, the Center has prepared an Inquiry Framework of questions to guide the development of a middle school civics curriculum. Links to suggested lessons, classrooms activities and resources are being added over the summer, with professional development to begin in August and continue through and into the future.

Developing a suggested curriculum guide integrating civics, economics, and New Jersey history and government into the required U. History course in high school will begin in the fall of A robust civics education program that provides the skills for every student to be able to negotiate life, work and government offers the best promise for equality and justice for all.

New Jersey can be at the forefront of reimagining civic learning for the 21 st century. Join us in this endeavor! How to Avoid a Climate Disaster. The New Jersey Department of Education has taken an important step in avoiding a climate disaster. Beginning in September , every New Jersey student in Grades K will be studying the causes and effects of climate change in their community, state, nation, and world. In Social Studies classes, students will be researching, debating, proposing, and implementing solutions to reduce their carbon foot print, propose strategies for a sustainable environment in their schools and community, propose solutions at the state and national level, and collaborate with students and professionals in other countries about global initiatives.

The goal of changing behavior at this critical time is to educate students with an interdisciplinary model and approaches in all disciplines. Bill Gates focuses on solutions to the impending climate crises regarding the harms of the 51,,, billion tons of greenhouse gases that 7,,, billion people contribute to every year!

Although on the average this is 70 tons a day, the per person contribution is significantly higher in the United States, New Jersey, and some other countries.

Europe has a plan to become the first continent to become carbon neutral in 30 years. And could Europe become the first climate-neutral continent? World Economic Forum weforum. The first application in How to Avoid a Climate Disaster is with the metaphors that will help students in the elementary grades to understand the effects of global warming. For example: Imagine a bathtub of water with the drain closed that is slowly filling up with water.

What will eventually happen? What will be the damage to the room or house? Why is it not enough to slow the amount of water filling up the bathtub? Imagine sitting in a car with the sun shining on the glass windows. What happens to the temperature inside the car? Will opening the window half an inch make the car safe for passengers? Why is the temperature of the earth increasing every year? What will be the result if it continues to increase? Teachers will find valuable resources for teaching young children how electricity and cars contribute to greenhouse gas emissions.

For younger children, teachers need to help their students understand how much electricity megawatts and kilowatts one family contributes. The average home uses 28 kilowatt hours of electricity per day.

For example, my electric bill stated that our home consumed kilowatt hours over 28 days or 23 kilowatt hours per day. Ask your students to identify everything in their apartment of home that uses electricity. Then compare kilowatts to a cup or glass of water that would be emptied into a sink or tub with the drain closed. Have your students explain the effects of increasing and decreasing the amount of electricity consumed. The more electricity used and the more people using electricity will generate additional greenhouse gases that will harm the environment.

Another important understanding for younger children is to understand that each item they identify as using electricity uses different amounts of energy. For example, a light bulb might use 40 watts but the hair dryer uses 1, The critical application for younger students is to understand that by reducing the amount of electricity consumed helps the environment.

In this context, teachers should scaffold to a higher conceptual level by understanding the impacts of more people in the home, community, and world. Reducing greenhouse gases is very difficult which is why understanding that everything we do and everything we produce has a harmful effect on our planet. The second application is the useful information to support middle school student debates on the solutions to reduce greenhouse gases at the local, state, and national levels.

Middle school students should understand how human activity is accelerating climate changes by warmer temperatures. The technology of renewable sources, i. However, the cost, amount of space needed to produce energy for a city, and the durability of the equipment are important areas for student research, problem-solving, and debate.

In the United States we have replaced energy several times over the past century. Many homes have fire places but wood burns quickly and heat is lost through the chimney. Coal and oil were more efficient resources to heat homes. They were eventually replaced in many homes with natural or propane gas. In the s and s the government supported high-powered transmission lines for electricity and underground pipes for natural gas.

In the s we transitioned from leaded gasoline to a more expensive grade of unleaded fuel. Understanding the processes of continuity and change over time for how people live is critical to understanding the societal costs of inexpensive fossil fuels. In Zurich, Switzerland there is a DAC direct air capture facility operated by Climeworks which can remove or absorb carbon from the atmosphere as it is released.

The United States has a per person carbon footprint of 15 tons per person. There are interesting hypothetical scenarios in How to Avoid a Climate Disaster regarding a place near Seattle or a large city the size of Tokyo.

In these scenarios, students will find enough information for them to ask probing questions or search for more research regarding the average number of days with sunlight or wind speeds, the impact of severe weather, the amount of space on land or in water to build an energy farm, the costs to transmit electricity over long distances, and how to store sufficient power for evenings and when energy supplies are less than what is demanded.

Another interesting topic for middle school students to debate or discuss is the impact of electric vehicles on home energy supplies. Students need to consider the impact of charging multiple vehicles per household and in a city with high-rise apartments.

The book also provides basic information that should motivate students to research the technologies of fusion, batteries, and nuclear power. Is fusion the magical answer for our goal of zero carbon emissions? Teachers will find empirical evidence in this book regarding current technology and experiments which are essential when teaching students how to support their claims and arguments with evidence.

The third application is for high school students to determine proposals for reducing the one-third of greenhouse gas emissions that come from producing plastics, cement, and fertilizers. The media focuses on emissions from the fossil fuels of vehicles and the generation of electric power. Two areas that may not be familiar to students are that 19 percent of global emissions come from the production and application of fertilizers and 31 percent from industrial production.

The combination of these two areas represents about one-half of the 51 billion tons of greenhouse gas emissions currently contributing to the increase in temperature. When studying continuity and change over time, students visually see how communities and cities change over years, 50 years, or less. For example:. When studying the impact of land use on climate, students should explore the environmental costs to society from the use of cement, steel, glass, generation of electricity, loss of forested land, waste, and traffic.

How to Avoid a Climate Disaster provides an opportunity for classroom exploration, research, inquiry, collaboration, and solutions. The contribution of the social sciences to understanding the causes of greenhouse gas emissions, strategies for changing the way we currently are doing things, and analyzing the externality of societal costs is found in what students do best — asking questions, researching, debating private and public solutions, analyzing the costs and long-term benefits, and presenting information clearly and concisely in graphs, tables, maps, and images.

Standard 6. The competitive advantage of Social Studies in learning about the biggest issue to impact our planet in history is with our ability to engage in problem solving, understanding perspectives from different cultures, historical lessons of strategies to address problems over time, the ability to analyze the economics of the problem and solutions, and to debate the effectiveness of public and private solutions.

The Social Studies classroom, especially in grades , is a laboratory for analyzing the marginal costs and losses of incremental changes, preventative solutions, investments in research and development, and the cost of inaction. One of the best chapters in How to Avoid a Climate Disaster is the one on government. The perspectives on the electrification or rural America, installing natural gas lines, building the interstate highway system, implementing the Clean Air Act or , the Montreal Protocol of , and the Human Genome Project provide empirical examples of what the government of the United States has accomplished in the 20 th century.

The lessons of innovation and the call to debate solutions for reaching the goal of zero carbon emissions are opportunities that should be integrated into the existing curriculum. The Sunshot Initiative sponsored by the U. Department of Energy to reduce the costs of solar energy is one example worth studying in Economics or U. Here are some examples:. As teachers in New Jersey begin to implement the K mandated curriculum standards on climate and environmental sustainability, they should consider an interdisciplinary model that includes learning in every grade focusing on causes, effects, and solutions at the local, state, national, and global levels.

Students who are age five in Kindergarten in will be 34 in Teachers who are age 25 or 30 now will be in The curriculum that is planned and implemented will have a measurable legacy in the foreseeable future. In , a nuclear bomb, sending a man to the moon, CT images, Global Positioning Systems GPS were impossible to imagine but by the middle of the 20 th century they were in development of considered possible.

Social Studies teachers must look beyond what is predictable today and teach students for a world that may be in conflict and crisis or one that can be safer and better. A Question of Freedom:. Having taught the colonial unit for decades as part of the U. The history of slaves in Maryland and the role of the Society of Jesuits in conducting the business of a tobacco corporation in complicated. As a result of reading A Question of Freedom , I have a new perspective and credible documentation of how slavery became rooted in the laws of our colonies, states, and national government.

The opening chapter is a compelling account of the life of Edward Queen who sued for freedom in because he was the son of a freewoman, his grandmother.

Hepburn by the U. Supreme Court in His attorney was Francis Scott Key. Teachers who are looking for the right questions to engage students in historical inquiry and investigative research will find the questions presented by Professor Thomas University of Nebraska, Lincoln a valuable resource. This book is filled with inquiry based questions that encourage exploration and debate.

In fact, this decision resulted in the freedom of twenty members of the Queen family. He discovered that Elizabeth M. Duckett claimed slaves at the end of the Civil War.

The document reported Henny Queen, age 35, and her five children ages six months to eight years old. Teachers interested in teaching about Continuity and Change will see insights in Chapter 2 about how the aftermath of the Seven Years War and the American Revolution gave rise to the election of liberal and conservative members in the British House of Commons.

In America, laws about slavery were limited to each colony before but in the case of England, its protection, importation, manumission, and abolition applied to a global colonial empire. Even though the importation of slaves was legal in the United States until , slaves who were brought to England were not compelled to leave according to a common law decision by Chief Justice Lord Mansfield in the decision of James Somersett.

James Somersett, a slave, was taken to England by his master, Charles Stewart, a customs officer in Boston. He ran away and was eventually tracked down and placed in prison. A writ of habeas corpus was issued for his release by the abolitionist Granville Sharp in connection with a pending case by merchants from the West Indies who wanted assurance by common law that slaves were a safe investment. The case of Somersett v.

Stewart , became a landmark case that inspired hope for slaves held in bondage throughout the British empire. The language of the S omersett decision indicates the complexities of the status of slaves as persons under natural and moral law or as property protected by laws. England will not abolish slavery for 60 years but without a specific law in England to sanction slavery, a person with the legal status of a slave in a colony could not be forced to leave England and return to slavery. James Somersett continued with his status as a slave but could not be forced to return to chattel slavery.

The language is confusing in stating that slavery was odious but a temporary presence in England did not guarantee manumission, and questions would continue regarding if the common law ruling applied only to the definition of being in England or if being on a ship or at a port in the Tames River applied.

Whatever slavery was, it was not sanctioned by English common law. As a result, Somersett v. Stewart wiped out the line of seventeenth century precedents that had once propped up slavery as a lawful form of property.

Professor Thomas researched the case of Mahoney v. Ashton in Maryland. Ashton was like almost no other petition for freedom in American history. The basis of the trial dated back to Ann Joice, grandmother of Charles Mahoney. Ann Joice was a black indentured servant from Barbados who spent time in England before coming to Maryland to work for Lord Baltimore.

As an indentured servant, she should be entitled to her freedom, as should her 1, descendants who were slaves in Maryland. People of color born from a free woman were not slaves! Unfortunately, it was difficult to provide evidence that she was in England. The research provided in this case, with its twists and turns, is worth your reading. In the trial, the jurors heard testimony from hearsay of Mary Queen, a free black woman who came to Virginia from New Spain instead of the Popo region of West Africa as claimed by Benjamin Duvall, representing the slaveholders.

The decision made sense. A higher court determined Edward Queen was free, so surely his mother, Phillis should be also. As a result of this decision, twenty related lawsuits freed over fifty children and grandchildren. In this same year, the Maryland legislature allowed manumission by last will and testament for individuals in good health, under the age of forty-five, who could support themselves. The defeat was total. Sandford in The Question of Freedom provides insights into why laws for voting based on the ownership of property were changed to qualifications based on race and skin color.

Judges provided instructions to jurors that the burden of proof fell on the enslaved person to prove their freedom and that the color of their mulatto skin was white. Testimony about the racial features of their ancestors would give greater weight than what contemporaries said about their status as free persons.

The Impact of the Domestic Slave Trade. The freedom case of Priscilla and Mina Queen Queen v. Hepburn offers unique insights into the slave trade, black market trade of enslaved persons, impact of bankruptcy on slaveowners and enslaved persons, and changing financial markets.

The case began in and a successful outcome depended on Priscilla and Mina Queen proving their grandmother was Nanny Cooper, the daughter of Mary Queen who was in England, and establishing that she came to Maryland as a free woman before years ago. John Hepburn, inherited over one thousand acres in and over the years overspent his fortune in a lucrative life style. As a result of filing for bankruptcy, his creditors could acquire slaves, sell them, and separate them from their children.

Blacks, both free and slave, were in high demand to meet the labor needs for the construction of buildings and roads in the new capital city of Washington D. The U. As a result of the increasing population of people of color in the new capital, strict black codes designed to limit freedom in the evening were enacted.

Chapter 5 presents the facts in a concise manner that offers teachers an opportunity to create a mock trial simulation of Queen v. Hepbu rn and Queen v. These cases have twists and turns regarding hearsay evidence, transcription errors in documents, and connections to shipping records and wills. There is also a map of Washington D. The research is splendid and the controversial issues for students to debate provide a powerful understanding of both systemic racism in the United States and the depth of individual freedom.

The arguments for the protection of property are real and the right to individual freedom is powerful. Students should ask questions about the rules of evidence in trials, especially in the case of slaves who lacked birth records and travel documents. In the 21 st century lawyers and judges argue over what evidence is credible and what needs to be excluded. Many judges were open to hearsay evidence in freedom trials, especially when it was supported by multiple individuals.

With the rejection of hearsay evidence, Priscilla Queen and Nina Queen both lost their suit for freedom. However, Nina Queen appealed her decision to the U. Supreme Court in February After reading Question of freedom, I realized this needs to be taught much earlier. Capitol, ships for our navy, and house servants for elected members of our government. It is a valuable resource for teachers, as is Solomon Northrup, Twelve Years a Slave , who want to teach about continuity and change and how the questions relating to slavery, property, and individual freedom changed in the first six decades of the 19 th century.

Jesse Torrey, circa , p. Slave Trades in Washington D. The story of Ann Williams captures the fear that every black person faced daily as the demand for labor intensified with the construction of roads and buildings and the cotton economy in the South. Ann Williams and her two young daughters were taken from their home in Bladensburg, Maryland and marched in chains for seven miles to Washington D.

She pried open a window and jumped three floors breaking her spine. George Miller, the tavern owner, kept her on a wooden pallet providing her with food and water. Engage your students in reflective thinking to determine if his motives were for humanitarian reasons or for profit from the children she would likely give birth to after she was healed.

This is a powerful story that your students will never forget. Furthermore, the Circuit Court in D. The questions presented by Professor Williams are at times clearly stated and they are also hidden in the perspectives.

For example, the argument by George Miller that slaves were property and could be denied a writ of habeas corpus are of national importance. With every economic crisis in , , with the changing markets for labor, with burgeoning individual debts and personal bankruptcy, enslaved persons were vulnerable.

Henry Clay. Teachers must ask their students how did economics influence the principles of slaveholders such as Francis Scott Key, John Marshall, Roger B. Taney, Henry Clay and other prominent Americans who are also understood as reformers? History is complicated! However, the freedom suit filed by Charlotte Dupee in for her freedom from Henry Clay, Secretary of State, displays these conflicts.

Henry Clay is a founding member of the American Colonization Society the chairperson , an aspiring candidate for president, former Speaker of the House of Representatives, and a senator from Kentucky. Charlotte and Aaron married and had two children, Charles and Mary Ann. Charlotte and Aaron were well known and respected among the Washington political elites and likely very aware of legislation and debates relating to slavery. However, she was born in and her father received his freedom in and her mother in She claimed her sale to Henry Clay was illegal.

They could be separated and sold at any time. The case embarrassed Henry Clay and called into question his political reputation. In another interesting twist of research, Professor Williams observes that Charlotte remained in Washington D.

Henry Clay instructed his attorney to inform Charlotte to return to his home in Kentucky at her expense. Her husband and children are here. Her refusal therefore to return home, when requested by me to do so through you, was unnatural towards them as it was disobedient to me. She has been her own mistress, upwards of 18 months, since I left her in Washington, in consequence of the groundless writ which she was prompted to bring against me for her freedom; and as that writ has been decided against her, and as her conduct has created insubordination among her relatives here, I think it is high time to put a stop to it.

Charlotte Dupee was taken to the D. She was 53 years old. Have your students examine slavery in America with snapshots taken in ratification of the U. Fears Every Black American Experienced. There were more urban riots in the summer of than in any other year. The riots in Washington D. The fear of industrial slave labor might replace skilled white workers. After someone reported the theft of compression pins from the blacksmith shop, the white workers went on strike.

The diary kept by Michael Shiner, one of the enslaved workers who was a literate carpenter reveals the fears of the black community and a unique perspective of the events in Washington D. Michael Shiner was one year away from his freedom when the riots of happened. Another event that shook America was the death of John Marshall on July 6, which was followed by the nomination of Roger B.

The diary of Michael Shiner also recorded the arrest of a young African American, Arthur Bowen for the attempted murder of a notable white woman, which involved the U. There are many factors related to these events in the summer of for students to analyze and each of them reveals engaging questions about abolition, the influence of the Ebenezer African Methodist Church on Fourth and G Streets, the inequality experienced by residents in the area around the Navy Yard Northeast , the citywide Memorial Petition calling for the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia, the slave trading corporation of Isaac Franklin and John Armfield with scheduled transports of slaves to New Orleans, Natchez, and other ports in the South.

Some of the questions that intrigued me are:. System Racism. The claims and arguments in this chapter regarding systemic racism in the United States are convincing. For example, the Union Bank of Louisiana arranged for slaveholders to leverage their land and slaves as collateral for expanding their cotton plantations. Unfortunately, when supply was greater than demand, creditors demanded payments on loans in gold or specie, or the price of cotton, sugar, or tobacco declined, slaves were traded and sold.

It was heartbreaking for families who were broken up. Slavery was legally defined at the state level. During the decade of , more than , slaves from Maryland and Virginia were sold through interstate trade — about 30, a year or about 80 a day. The free black population in Maryland doubled between from 10, to 20, Forty years later, the number of free blacks had more than tripled to 62,, and four in every ten African Americans were free. Slaves purchased on the market walked perhaps miles to their new destinations in the Carolinas and Georgia or transported on vessels owned by Isaac Franklin and John Armfield, to New Orleans and Natchez.

Each captive had only about 36 cubic feet of space, 6x3x2 sometimes less, when more than people were jammed into the tightly packed holds below decks. Franklin and Armfield typically separated the men and boys from the woman and girls on the voyage and heavily fortified the section of the ship holding the men. The Uncas carried approximately 50 people. In , the slave trade in the District of Columbia ended with the Compromise of Although these words could provide evidence that slaves were persons with basic constitutional rights of due process under the Fifth Amendment, they were seized without a warrant.

Even Frederick Douglass, a runaway, was at risk of being returned to slavery! The answers to these questions are difficult as reflected in the response of the abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison.

The Compromise of made Garrison choose between the U. Constitution and the moral evil of slavery. One of the Performance Expectations for students in New Jersey public schools is to learn about free black communities:. Although Maryland had the third highest population of slaves in the United States with more than a hundred thousand people in bondage, p.

Forty years later, the number of free blacks was 62,, and four in every ten African Americans were free. Another insight I learned from reading Question of Freedom was the diversity of Maryland regarding plantation slavery in the Chesapeake Bay area and the absence of slavery in Frederick County in northwestern Maryland.

The evidence in A Question of Freedom , regarding the presence of systemic racism in the United States is convincing and it is presented over years beginning with Mary Queen. For further inquiry and exploration, research the digital resources on the freedom suits of enslaved persons from Maryland. The Georgetown Slavery Archive. Education for Sustainable Democracy Brett Levy. Students need to be proficient in any program used. I assumed they knew more than me, but in reality there is much that students needed to learn, and teachers need to be prepared to teach the technology as well as the content of their lesson.

Teachers need to foster and develop an increased sense of autonomy and independence among their students. I have found giving students a choice in project based assessment helps to build this. Teachers and students are a team and must rely on each other, and their classroom built on mutual respect.

They develop a learning community that works together to discover and build upon knowledge. Students need to know a teacher cares when they are not there. If a student is not in class, I will have a classmate text them that I know are friends or I will call them at the beginning of class. I also include a weekly message in our Classroom Stream to the entire class to remind them of the great things we are accomplishing as a group.
