First Post

I always loved history, and when I chose to pursue a teaching career in elementary education, I was happy that it gave me an opportunity to pursue history as well - as a concentration.
My favorite thing a about history is its ability to explain why the world is the way it is. To me, history is a story of humanity, and who wouldn't be interested in that?
During this course, I would love to learn more about writing history essays since I feel that it would be an important benefit in my future history courses here at RIC. And for myself, I would simply like to develop my analytical mind, which of course, is of tremendous benefit in any area in life. Speaking of analysis, I forgot to mention that the ability to analyze has always been one of my favorite parts about history classes in high school and beyond. I never liked math and science, but analyzing has always been one of my strengths and something I enjoyed.
