SOC 940 - Washington, DC - Capital Sites

Credits: 3
The names are heard every night on the news: the White House, the Pentagon, Capitol Hill. We watch programs with the Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial or Washington Monument as backdrops. Articles are read from the Smithsonian, National Geographic, and the Library of Congress. There is no other place in this country that directly affects every citizen as does Washington, D.C. So important is our Capital, than many school systems throughout the country have required field trips to Washington, D.C. in order to reinforce classroom learning and foster responsible citizenship. No matter the curricular area, our Capital will provide the educator opportunities to adapt the treasures of our nation's Capital to his or her own classroom.

NOTE: Required textbook must be purchased separately.
