[quote=Anonymous]When I was in high school, my American History teacher assigned chapters to read. But, more important SHE gave the LECTURES on the history and added interesting anecdotes, etc. Not only that, she began the year by putting detailed outlines of her lectures on the overhead projector. As the year progressed, the outlines became sketchier--in other words, she taught us how to listen and take notes by illustrating notes. By the end of the year, her outline on the projector was just main events. We were to take notes on what she told us. She was a wonderful teacher. Not only did she teach us history, she prepared us for college lectures of any subject. We also were required to do a lengthy term paper with footnotes. Mine required lots of research at the library as the subject was more contemporary. It was a demanding class, but turned out to be quite valuable.[/quote]
