Summer 2001

Michigan EPIC began a new project for National Heritage Academies (NHA) producing world history and geography materials for K-6 students. These interactive, web-based materials include animation, vocalized text, original art and other multimedia. NHA educators use these materials to teach such units as Ancient Egypt, Greece, Rome, Mesopotamia, American Presidents, World Religions, among others.

These units allow comprehensive learning within a classroom environment, where the educator presents the materials using an LCD projector. This method allows the material to be presented at a pace the educator can control, and allows discussions with students.

These units will be available on the NHA intranet for fast access, and are available here on our site for a short time. To see a sample of these units, select one from below:

Mesopotamia

Ancient Egypt

Feudalism

American Presidents, Past and Present

Michigan History Themes

Please contact us with your questions or thoughts on these units. Thanks.
