The Kindle Fires I am requesting for my students will benefit their learning and understanding of not only the history of the United States but the world around them. Learning history has evolved past simply memorizing facts and dates and students are now pushed to analyze the events of the past and understand how the actions of others affect our world today. Students are more focused on cause and effect of events, context, analysis of bias, point of view, and connection to current events. This has rendered traditional ways of teaching history and traditional uses of textbooks almost obsolete. The easiest way for my students to achieve in their understanding of history comes from research and in-depth discovery using digital tools and resources available to them. They will use sites such as Nearpod, Kahoot, Quizlets and YouTube and Teachertube to revisit history from various perspectives and upload and create their own perspectives and various video projects they can share with the world.
