Title: Hip-hop as a
Teaching Tool
As
an English teacher in the public school system, it is imperative that I develop
innovative ways to teach timeless concepts and skills. With the increased teacher accountability
tied to state and national norms and achievement tests, the K-12 education
sector is scrambling for strategies to use in order to reach our inner city
youth. It is my philosophy, however,
that we use everyday mediums in order to teach complex concepts. It is through the analysis of several
elements of hip-hop including MC-ing and Graffiti writing that we can teach our
underserved students how to access, understand, and formulate knowledge of our
world.

Title: Green Technology is the Newest Hustle
This
presentation will show how youth started Hip Hop as a hustle;
unknown, different, radical, etc. and how it evolved and is still a
hustle today and profitable. Green technology is similar with green cars,
wind turbines, etc. and will need the youth to recognize that there knowledge
about this newest hustle could be quite profitable for the hip hop community.
