Molder of Dreams

I've heard it said that good teachers, like good actors, are thieves--constantly taking good ideas from other teachers. But, like Robin Hood, good teachers pass on what they "steal" to others. What ideas in the Molder of Dreams video might a teacher find particularly worth "stealing" and passing on? What do you like about Guy Doud's approach to education? If you were someday chosen "national teacher of the year" which of your past teachers do you think you would mention as having passed on to you something you think should be passed on to others?

Welcome!

Welcome to the official 2013 class blog of SEED 415, Social Science Special Methods. This blog is the place to record your reflections on the class and to exchange ideas on making social studies classes what they should be--the most interesting, most exciting, most important classes your students will take.

To get us off to a good start, please share here one of things you remember best/enjoyed most in any of your high school or college history classes. Anything that particularly helped lead you to choosing history/social studies as a major?

By the way, it would be a good idea for you to become a "follower" of this blog so that you are alerted to new posts as soon as they appear.
