Finally a major network is recognizing Black History
month. NBC will has produced hundreds of video
clips designed for teachers to integrate into their
lessons. This has been long over due and the network
should be commended for it's work. Thank you NBC!
The curriculum is comprised of more than 500 two-to-five minute video clips spanning hundreds of years of history and designed to be easily integrated into teachers' lesson plans. They are pooled from over 70 years of NBC News coverage and supplemented with early history mini-documentaries created in collaboration with educators, historians, textbook authors, and other experts.
The subject matter includes the history of African-Americans from the slave trade through the modern civil rights movement; features on and interviews with African-American leaders from politics, science, arts and literature, and business; and examinations of the African-American experience today including politics, health issues, education, the justice system, the economy, and the family.
The African-American Studies resource is available online at HotChalk (www.hotchalk.com/nbc.html), a free web-based learning management system designed specifically for K-12 educators. HotChalk helps teachers develop customized lesson plans and assignments, locate and integrate curriculum materials, and manage assignments and grading.
