David+Pearson

My name is David Pearson. I am a senior at Clemson University from Knoxville, TN. I am currently studying to be a high school social studies teacher. I am currently observing 11 grade US History at Seneca High School and plan to teach in the Greenville area post graduation. Outside of pursuing an education I am interested in anything involving the outdoors including rock climbing, kayaking, and sailing.

 * //How I Might Use a Wiki in the Classroom//** //From Sea to Shining Sea// is a wiki that Matt Miller and I created that is designed to take students on a virtual road trip across the United States. The goal of this wiki is to give students a chance to explore a state from our country and learn how to create a website. Students will use this wiki to individually research a state providing research they have developed.

This webquest is designed for high school students to examine the experience of Irish Immigrants coming to America. Through several research projects students will gain an understanding of the Irish Potato Famine, Immigration, and life in America. After completing the research. Students should be able to examine the question of whether or not America really was the 'land of opportunity."
