🌍 In honor of the anniversary of the U.S. Immigration Act, we're showcasing films that provide a personal perspective on migrants, refugees and displaced persons around the world. Our teaching materials for these films are designed to support students in practicing compassion and humility and making meaningful attempts to understand why refugees flee their homes, what their lives are like, and how everyday people can get involved to help. For grades 4-12.

I’m pleased to share a new article published with Edutopia on reducing end-of-year disengagement in social studies classrooms.

https://www.edutopia.org/article/engaging-high-school-social-studies-students-end-year

The article explores a four-week AP World History thematic investigation project built around:
• inquiry
• source analysis
• thesis development
• scaffolded checkpoints
• student ownership

The goal is to move students from passive review toward genuine historical thinking.

I learned about #MasarykUniversity beginning an interdisciplinary master's in applied #HealthEconomics. I liked that the program brought in experts from #Economics, #Medicine, #Science, #Pharmacy, #Law, and #SocialStudies, and that the subject matter incorporated insights from multiple countries' health systems. Last fall, I moved to the #CzechRepublic to join the inaugural cohort. 2/6

Texas Students Decry Politicized Social Studies Overhaul

Texas students are unhappy with the new social studies curriculum changes. They say it's too political and not inclusive. The State Board of Education will vote soon.

Students in Texas are speaking out against changes to their social studies classes. They feel the new rules focus too much on politics instead of teaching a full history.
