There are more than few projects happening with online social studies as the new year begins. Some are bigger than others, but I thought I would mention two of the projects I am excited about.
Above is a look at a unit that I have been working on. It is a Moodle based research unit good for larger research projects like history day
1.) I had the idea of creating some interdisciplinary units on Moodle. Ultimately, I would like to build a bank of units spanning across the social studies subjects. The goal is to establish a base of 3-4 units by the end of the school year and open it up to teachers across the district as a resource and a space for collaboration and sharing. I would love some ideas that people have on cool units!
2.) The second project that I am excited about is using IPADS. I have been long wanting to re-organize the online geography curriculum into a thematic structure. I was invited to join a very talented team of teachers (both geography and tech) to work on integrating the IPAD into the Geography curriculum! Work has just begun to so I will keep you updated on the cool new things that come out it.
