Modern World History - Mr. Matthews - Fall 2012
History is not a class or a subject...it is a TOOL.
This website is designed to allow you, student or parent, to access much of the information you will need to INVEST time in our class...rather than just SPENDING time there!
The "Class Info" link will take you to the course syllabus, grading information, an explanation of the value of reading notes, as well as a general overview of the projects we may do.
Use the "Homework" link to stay current if you've missed/are going to miss a class.
"PIH" will take you to the Persistent Issues in History website - this is of great value!
The "Beautiful Game" links you to my other passion.
