Through my own personal development.

I identified most with the vision of social reform. I feel that for students who are exploring history all sides of a story should be presented.

The emphasis on positive and negative happenings should be balanced in order to give students a chance to develop a well rounded view of the society they are living in and how it came to be.

The view each student develops about their society within a social studies class should be a result of their own thinking.

Extracurriculars:

If there was a demand for a club based on any of my many hobbies or talents I would be more than happy to assist. My many hobbies and interestes include, knitting, baking, sewing, photography, painting, woodworking, reading, researching geneaology, traveling and more. Having a baking or knitting club is very useful for social studies students that fall under the vision of Social Reform. It could be used to teach and help students help out in their communities.Volunteering to help with certain extra curriculars that already existyearbook is definitely something I see myself doing.

Suggested websites to help students introduce new ideas and skills into their lives.

Appreciation

Students should learn to appreciate history and old technologies such as photography. They can learn a lot from looking at old photos.
