Civics

[close] A group intended for all the readers who are teachers of the social studies: to share useful reading in the content areas, as well as in education as a whole. Create a discussion for your discipline, a class subject, a unit, or maybe your targeted grade/age-group! Please share your wisdom and experiences! Invite your fellow teaching friends!

[close] A variety of topics for lifelong learners.

[close] Looking for good social studies books? Join this social studies teacher reading group where we discuss books for enjoyment and how we can use books in our classroom.

[close] Hello, and welcome! RAMP--the "Rehumanizing America" Project--is simply an effort to discover why we are increasingly divided in this country and what we as individuals can do about it. The Library for RAMP, then, will not belong to any one discipline, but will reach across a range of disciplines that explore why we are who we are (as humans, as Americans, etc.) and what we can do to overcome our hidden biases, tribal defensiveness, and dehumanizing tendencies. Feel free to add books to the bookshelf, and please consider adding your reflective notes about the book, your thoughts as to how it relates to this group, a simple note of, "Looks interesting!" for those discovered but not yet read, etc. Feel free to also list in the comments sections any other resources (videos, articles, organizations, etc.) that speak to these issues. Thanks so much for being a part of this community! I can't wait to see what we will uncover! :) Best, Heather
