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

    edutopia.org/article/engaging-

    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.

  30. 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

  36. 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.
