This website was created by Joshua Arie Coon. I am a student at the College of Brockport in the Masters of Education for Social Studies program. I have been studying re-enacting and what role it can play in the classroom. I decided on this topic for my thesis quite simply because my parents are both re-enactors and so I have been to many re-enactments in my life. I also remember when I was in 7th grade, my Social Studies teacher brought in a local re-enacting battery to demonstrate the firing of a cannon. I still remember that day clearly in my mind. I am a very visual learner and so demonstrations like that really helped me learn. I am hoping to inspire some fellow educators to experiment with different ideas that will help drive home what is being taught in the classroom.
