Objective
My goal is to create a classroom environment where students feel comfortable and open
to learn new concepts. I hope to expand my students perceptions and foster their development of
historical thinking. Upon leaving my class hopefully students will have greater understanding of
their surroundings, other cultures, and what it means to be a global citizen.
