Notas del editor

  1. Introduce myself. Go over information in packet Ask about past experiences with History Day Why do I do this? I loved history growing up, but I didn’t want to teach in a traditional classroom setting so I majored in Public History, which means I took history in addition to Museum Studies, Archives, Historic Preservation and Local History. I got an M.A. in Museum Studies in Upstate NY, focusing on museum education. I interned with the New York State History Day Coordinator and took over that position while I was still in graduate school. In May 2006 I moved to Columbus to be the Ohio History Day Coordinator, so here I am. Trying to make history fun for students and teachers. I have a presentation prepared, but I am here to help you, so please stop and ask me lots of questions. My goal for this presentation is to help you understand effective methods of implementing the program into the classroom and to get you excited about this project’s potential.
