1. Andrew Howard
ED 300 – Technology For Teachers

2. All About Me
 My name is Andrew James Howard and I was born on July 7, 1991 in
Homewood, Alabama
 I was born with a heart condition known as Tetralogy of Fallot, which caused
an irregular heartbeat or “murmur” that was corrected through open heart
surgery when I was nine months old. My heart, now functions as well as those
in the general population.
 I am currently seeking a second Bachelor’s degree in Secondary Education
with a focus in history

3. Things that I like
 I LOVE History and Science,
because they both inspire.
 The stories of those before us
inspire us to do better and hold on
to our convictions.
 The discoveries of science widen
the realm of possibilities for us to
explore in an attempt to create the
world that we want to live in and
possible achieve the kind of cosmic
existence that we could only
fantasize about.
 I am also a BIG fan of science
fiction and superheroes because
they always raise the question of
“What if?” What if we could
develop the science for people to
do those amazing things that we
read about and see in the movies?
What if people were as heroic as
the Avengers, or the Justice
League? They wouldn’t have to
have superpowers or special
gadgets, just the indomitable will
fight for justice, truth, equality,
peace and unity. What an amazing
blue Earth this planet would be!

4. U.S. History Class Rules
 Treat everyone with respect. No name calling, racial, anti-religious, anti
(Insert political party here), homophobic epithets or derogatory language of
any kind.
 If you have questions raise your hand. Don’t be shy. If you have trouble
understanding something, 9 times out of 10, there is someone else in the
room who is having the same trouble.
 Always be on time. Punctuality is important. If you are not in class five
minutes after class starts without a legitimate excuse, points will taken off
your overall grade.
 Turn in assignments in a timely manner. Late assignments will either have
points deducted from them or not graded at all. However, if there is a
legitimate excuse for why an assignment is late, you will not have points
deducted.

5. I HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 I have high expectations of you and
you WILL meet my expectations. If
you expect to make a D, I expect
you to make C. If you expect to
make C, I expect you to make a B.
If you expect to make a B, I expect
you to make an A. If you expect to
make an A, I expect you to make an
A plus.
 You are going to realize your
potential in my class and you shall
amaze yourself.

6. MOST IMPORTANTLY, Know
that I care about you and if
you think that I am pressing
you too hard, it is only
because I want to you
SUCCEED at the HIGHEST
POSSIBLE level.
