My name is Angela. I reside in Southern Maryland and I teach 8th Grade Social Studies. The subject matter is American History which is perfect because that is my favorite thing to learn about. My personal interests are related to antiquing, movies, music-listening and buying freshly made baked goods and ice cream.

My learning goals for this course are related to discussing and discovering new technologies and the pedagogies associated with teaching history. As mentioned I teach 8th Grade American History, and my students tend to struggle with their learning of history even with the use of technology. Don’t let their cellphone usage fool you, a lot of them are ignorant about websites and applications. I am most interested in teaching and learning environments related to the public school system and teacher professional development as well learning environments in higher eduation.
