An online Master of Arts program designed for social studies teachers
The fully-online Master of Arts with a Specialization in Teaching American History and Government (MASTAHG) offers teachers an integrated program which brings together the resources of Ohio's leading College of Education and the nation's premier liberal arts program for social studies teachers. Available as a fully-online, hybrid online/on-campus, or fully on-campus program, MASTAHG combines high-quality instruction from leading scholars with a flexible format.
Ashland's MASTAHG program is designed to prepare secondary school teachers for the challenge of teaching accelerated courses in American history and US government. The program combines the study of the people, ideas, and events that make up the American experience, with the latest theories in curriculum design and delivery. This dual approach provides teachers with the expertise they need to effectively deliver college-level instruction at the high school level.
Courses are offered both in a traditional classroom setting at the Ashland main campus, at Ashland's regional centers, and online. With a combination of online and on-campus study, the program may be completed in about two years.
