1.4.- Doculeague about Leaderships of United States (i)

a.-What is its objective?

– To promote in American citizens a high appreciation of their country’s heritage by acquainting themselves with the great history of the United States in all its achievements and contributions in science, technology, culture, and civilization. I believe this docu-league is very useful for the United States, as the United States suffers greatly from the WOKE ideology, which insists on digging into all the bad aspects of its history. This docu-league could be titled “Glorious Events and Achievements of the USA.” For twenty years, Profile America  published one such event or achievement daily, and I copied many of them

b.-What is its mechanism?

– The first column of each docu-league unit will present a daily event of Profile America. The player must mark its title in the second column. There are two options: data in text and in audio.

c.- What benefits will it bring to American students?

-Results: The players’ scores will count toward their course certifications and toward awards for winners, depending on sponsors.

d.-Source of the data?

Profile America: An American database with more than 9,000 daily radio programs for 20 years. Authentic year-after-year celebrations of important contributions of the United States to civilization.
