Designed for Secondary School Social Studies Teachers
如果你像大多数社会研究老师一样, you received training in the methods of effective teacher and classroom management as an undergraduate in a college of education. But how much time were you able to spend studying the substance of what you teach? How many courses did you take on the actual topics you cover each day, 比如美国建国, the causes and effects of the Civil War or the role of the progressive movement in shaping the modern United States?
作为一个考虑研究生学习的教育工作者, you probably have many master's programs in educational methods available to you. 但如果你想研究人民, events and ideas that shaped the United States or the origins and structure of the American political system, choose the AU 美国历史文学硕士 and Government.

Inside Look
Ashland's MAHG is distinct from other graduate programs because of its summer residential courses. Unlike the experience you will receive in an online or commuter program, MAHG很方便, weeklong summer courses make it possible to immerse yourself in your studies, 远离家庭的干扰. Listen as MAHG学生 and faculty reflect on their experiences and explain why this program is the best option for social studies teachers who strive for academic excellence.
MAHG's unique weeklong summer courses add an important dimension to the graduate school experience. While fully-online asynchronous programs may offer convenience, they do not provide the same collegiality that develops when students meet face to face.
The study 集团s and friendships that develop during the summer on-campus experience carry over to online courses, making web conference discussions much more personal and meaningful. Our convenient weeklong format provides the perfect compromise, enriching the student learning experience without disrupting personal or professional responsibilities.
