The “quiz” today was the same one that Viji gave her students a few weeks ago, and their responses were similar. I began by reviewing the importance of the past in understanding the violence ...

Teaching the Modern Middle East:. Reflections on a Large Survey Course. Skip to primary content. The first class was thrilling. I felt briefly as if I was simultaneously historian, newscaster, and Oprah, though missing the microphone that would have allowed my students to explain why they had changed their responses. During the summer of 2008, as I conducted a Burch Field Research Seminar in Turkey. I had spent months talking with colleagues about how to actually work toward that goal in the classroom&#4...

teachingthemhim | A Journey of fun family nights that teach Christ to our boys

A Journey of fun family nights that teach Christ to our boys. July 26, 2012. I gotta admit, we’ve been a little lax about family night during the summer.

Since it’s been over a 100 degrees for…ever, those will have to wait. But I saw this great sign on Facebook. Which led me to this website. Oh well, learning to share and take turns is Biblical, too.
