Legacy of Jimmy Carter

Angela Lee

Connects back to a previous question about current events - I was wondering how people here were covering Jimmy Carter’s passing, and connecting his his time as president with issues that are still very much in the current spotlight: conflict in the Middle East, with Iran, with Panama and even with climate? These have all been percolating in my mind as I watch footage of him in newscasts as he has been laid to rest.

  • I teach in Georgia so most of my students had lessons on President Carter in elementary and middle school. On Thursday, I plan on streaming the funeral coverage for my students to watch as they complete their assignments. 

    We are in the middle of the industrial revolution, but I did make a note to circle back to his presidency during Units 8 and 9 for AP World.

    Makes sense that students in Georgia would all know about President Carter! I’m in MA and most of my students had no idea at all!
