On November 21, Michael Milton, of the BHS Social Studies Department, presented with Dan Krutka at the National Council for the Social Studies Conference in Boston. They presented an activity that Mr. Milton does with his World History classes, merging the Enlightenment thinkers with Twitter.
Conference attendees were taken through the activity in groups where they assumed the roles of Voltaire, Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau and Wollstonecraft and then responded to the USA Patriot Act.
