Students are increasingly technologically literate and accustomed to thinking analytically with online film and sound. Using student’s interests and skill set to improve their reading comprehension, writing, and historical analysis will make classroom learning fun and intuitive. Instead of limiting lecture time to classrooms, students can now use their cell phone to access hundreds of history classes to watch on the subway or listen to while walking to school.
U.S. History Scene aims to assist history buffs, life long learners, economically challenged students and people with intellectual disabilities with equal access to a premier education. Videos, text, and image stimulate different memory techniques for students who are Visual or Auditory learners.
