The Historical study study of the United States and the world in which we lives gives us foundation knowledge to make decisions on every aspect of our lives. When we learn history in perpespective to the world in which we have been shaped, we can then have the information to make the best choices about how to start the best business, where to invest in technology, how better to fund and cure diseases, and how to best negotiate ourselves and our families in this world.
It is my goal for my students to learn not only about the historical events that have shaped the world in a particular course, but how those events continue to shape our world today and will continue to shape their decisions both personally and globally in the future.
