The Nomadic Professor

The Nomadic Professor specializes in online high school history courses. The courses are secular and non-partisan, focusing on helping students appreciate nuance while engaging them through location-based video lectures featuring Dr. W. Kesler Jackson. Students learn to think about historical events in context and to explore the factors that complicate historical moments. An emphasis on evidence and logical argument, along with the on-location video element, makes history come alive as students engage in making original judgments about the past. The courses are rigorous but engaging, with text and audio complemented by videos filmed around the world, with new content continually being added. Additionally, students and teachers receive support throughout each course with resources such as guided notes, document lessons with video modeling, rubrics, and answer keys.
