 * Wendy Scott**

School: Old Dominion University School Location: Norfolk, VA Grade level you teach: I taught 9th grade World History and 10th Government in the International Baccalaureate Program. I currently teach Social Studies Methods at ODU while I work on my Ph.D in Curriculum and Instruction. I also work with a community outreach program that works with under resourced high school students and first generation college students to promote academic success through mentoring with an academic emphasis. Hobbies and interests: Travel, Swim, Drum, Community Service specifically targeting poverty in the local community, Family (My sister had her first baby 12 days ago!) Why EHL?: I am very interested in learning more about humanitarian law, human rights, and social justice in order to help the pre-service teachers I work with create more meaningful and authentic lessons to prepare active, democratic citizens for the 21st century. I'm also very interested in learning how we can teach others about the global needs to prepare and empower people of action and agents of change.
