Lady Gaga and History

Last week science, now history

Two teachers in Hawaii, one a history teacher and the other a technology curriculum coordinator teamed up four years ago to create music videos with a historical theme. Their most recent is one using a Lady Gaga song to teach the French Revolution. You can read more about it at the Teaching Now blog and you can view the YouTube video which has been looked at over 200,000 times below. Wonder how many of those visits were by students studying for a history test?! Ahhhh, like it or not, the power of music!
