The goal of educators is to teach students to be well-rounded citizens and dedicated life-long learners. The challenge of this premise is to make lessons interesting and relevant. With this in mind, a project that involves student directed historical analysis, fact finding research and the use of technology to create what their own perception is of history in our wonderful town of Vineland is a step in a positive direction to achieving a high level of student interest. Students will be engaged in a variety of "hands-on" activities as well as creating a portion of the curriculum that they will be taught. Students will also be encouraged to use critical thinking skills and a variety of cooperative learning techniques. Use of reading, writing, and technology will ensure that the learning process is in progress. Lastly, students will guide themselves to greater expectations in their lives by making important decisions that will affect faculty, staff, administration and the student body.
