The tool kit, entitled “Teaching 9/11,” provides a variety of methods and examples of how teachers can incorporate the understanding and history of the events of Sept. 11, 2001, in a number of subjects throughout the academic year. According to the center’s curator, teachers were selected based upon the creative and in-depth approaches they took to introducing students to 9/11.
Nicholas and members of his Middle East History class are featured in a video that opens the Global History section of the tool kit. Two of his lesson plans, “Understanding the Background of the US Role in the Middle East – 1953 Iranian Coup & America’s Role” and “Negative Stereotypes in the Media” were chosen to be included in the tool kit for educators around the world to utilize in their classrooms.
