Profile Information
- I teach or learn:
- Yes: Document Analysis, Research skills, US History, African American Studies, Social Studies, Civics
- My WiZiQ profile or about me:
At my "day job" I specialize in curriculum alignment to state and national learning standards, workshop and seminar facilitation, professional development training, website evaluation and redesign, curriculum design, document analysis, historical writing, and research.
WiZiQ allows me to teach history and civics to people near and far but my real love is interacting with learners in person. Take one of my classes, tell your friends and colleagues, and then bring me to your school or organization. In the mean time . . .
I will be posting ancillary materials here for attendees of my online courses, as well other educational ephemera that I find inspiring, informative, or simply worthy of exposure to a broader audience. Enjoy.
