Abstract
Within my historical education experience throughout middle and high school, there has been a basis of lectures to portray the importance of historical events and context. Although I was able to learn and enjoy the concept, many of my peers fell out of love with the subject due to the lectures and feeling unable to connect with the subject. This capstone aims to change that, allowing for teachers to have a different 'backbone' for their classroom agendas and lesson plans, creating a space where teachers and students can learn about history and its connection to present-day life together.
