My name is Ryan ...Dear Random Thoughts on History:<br /><br />My name is Ryan Rosado and I am writing on behalf of For Love of Liberty: The Story of America’s Black Patriots, a PBS documentary that details the military contributions of African Americans. Realizing the educational significance of the film, the U.S. Army created an edited 25-minute version of the film and corresponding high school and college facilitator guides. The materials, structured to fit a classroom timeframe, are versatile and can compliment studies in American history, civics, social studies and ROTC programs. <br /> <br />Two professors holding PhD’s in curriculum development created the facilitator guides. These guides define course outcomes, general information, important facts and post viewing questions for each chapter.<br /><br />The chapters of the film are divided according to wars, which allow educators the option to adapt the materials to fit specific topical discussions. The 25-minute version can be shown in its entirety or according to appropriate content. Either way, educators can customize the video footage to support several presentation formats. <br /><br />We believe Random Thoughts on History could greatly benefit from posting an entry on our facilitator guides and electronic chapters of the For Love of Liberty documentary. Since your website targets educators and history enthusiasts specifically, the materials we can post to Random Thoughts on History would allow blog visitors an opportunity to engage with a topic that is sometimes easily overlooked in American history. <br /><br />We would greatly appreciate any feedback or assistance you could provide for this initiative. We look forward to hearing from you and hope you consider For Love of Liberty as an additional educational resource for your website. <br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Ryan Rosado<br /><br />Please note that after September 30, 2010, the For Love of Liberty educational materials will not be longer be available online since the program will not receive funding from the US Army this upcoming fiscal year. All assets will be gone. So please take this opportunity to obtain these materials free for download before they are no longer available.Ryan Rosadohttp://forloveofliberty.netnoreply@blogger.com
