The Social Studies Department believes that since students learn in a variety of ways, materials should be presented to accommodate these learning styles.  Methods of presentation would include lecture, large and small group discussion, debating, using various technologies, and others.  The department also believes that a proper understanding of the social sciences will nurture the all important leadership skills that our students must have in order to make a positive contribution as knowledgeable citizens of a democratic society.
