Hello, Everyone:
My name is Michelle Colquitt and I am a Georgia Southern University M.Ed. student in the School Library Media Program. I am seeking initial certification in this program, therefore, my work product is governed by the American Association of School Librarians (AASL) Standards for the 21st-Century Learner. Welcome to my mini-lessons created for Georgia Southern University's #FRIT7234. The purpose of this module is to share information about the umbrella topic of United States History using principles of Inquiry-Learning and Information Fluency. This module addresses the Georgia Performance Standards for United States History and covers the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, the Cold War, and the Watergate Scandal. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or feedback about this module. I am also reachable on Twitter. Good Luck!! Michelle |
