Me!
Howdy folks! I'm R.C. Remington. I grew up in the bustling metropolis of Dayton, Nevada and am a bit of a country boy. I love history. I love to read about Ancient Egyptian religion, samurai, American Presidents, homesteading, and anything to do with our world's past. I often dream of sailing the seas as a buccaneer or riding into an old western town as a Marshall. I find it hard to believe that so many people find history boring. I hope to bring the excitement I feel for history to students of that persuasion. I look forward to learning how to tap into technology to get rid of history's "boring" stigma among students. All that aside, I love my wife, Stephanie, as well as sports, video games, dogs, good food, and working out.

I don't think I've ever met anyone who wants to sail the seas as a buccaneer but more power to you!
ReplyDeleteI agree with what you said about the "boring" stigma and using technology to get rid of it. There are tons of really good sites out there that we can use to get our students interested.
ReplyDeleteI agree with both above posts! I really don't understand the boring stigma, and I actually think it is beginning to decrease somewhat, but maybe that is just my hope.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that you love Ancient Egypt and the study of religion there. I got to go to Egypt about a year ago and see the markings at the temples and it was fascinating! Love it.
