"I had to make a wiki for a grad class this summer, so I used the debate idea.  We had to incorporate tech, so there is a Google docs and Skype component... I like the idea of trying the debate through Skype.  Let me know what you…"

"I have only taught APUSH once, but I covered the Civil Rights Movement, then the Vietnam War.  While some students were confused by the overlapping presidential administrations, I still think it was a good move."

"Sprinting to the finish is how I feel.  Add in state assessment tests at this time too, and I end up feeling lost, let alone them.  I am leaning towards doing these two chronologically too.  Just need to organize my…"
