Yes! The depth and richness of the Medal of Honor Character Development Program can be a vehicle to take lessons of service and courage into the world of numbers and scientific discovery.

In this webinar for the edWeb.net Lessons of Personal Bravery and Self-Sacrifice community, presenter Tim Smith, 7th Grade Math Teacher in Tennessee, shared how to use the Medal of Honor Character Development curriculum to explore content specific vocabulary, provide a unique context for mathematical exploration, and cultivate the seeds of discovery and invention.  Tim explored how you can motivate your students to pursue their technological aspirations with integrity and a view to serve others.
