一位德克萨斯州的老师带着她的学生进行了一次穿越美国历史的公路旅行

In her video Weehawken to Gettysburg Cathy Cluck stands near a statue of Alexander Hamilton in New Jersey. Cluck took a 15-day road trip to visit some of the places she teaches her students about each year and posted daily highlights to her YouTube.

在她的视频《威霍肯到葛底斯堡》中，凯西·克鲁克站在新泽西州亚历山大·汉密尔顿雕像附近。克鲁克每年都要进行15天的路途旅行，参观她教给学生的一些地方，并在YouTube上发布每日的精彩内容。

Coming back to school this fall has presented new challenges for students, their families and educators. But for Cathy Cluck, it has presented an opportunity.

今年秋天重返校园对学生、他们的家人和教育者都提出了新的挑战。但对凯茜•克鲁克来说，这提供了一个机会。

Cluck teaches U.S. history at Westlake High School in Austin, Texas. And as she was preparing her lessons for this very nontraditional year, she asked herself, "What can I do now that I wouldn't be able to do in a normal year?" Cluck tells NPR that she "just kind of had this idea: that I teach American history and what if I went to the places where American history happened?"

克鲁克在德克萨斯州奥斯汀的西湖高中教美国历史。当她在为这个非常不传统的一年备课时，她问自己：“我现在能做什么在正常的一年里不能做的事?” 克鲁克告诉NPR，她“有一种想法：我教美国历史，如果我去美国历史发生的地方怎么样?”

So she did. Cluck took a 15-day road trip (dubbed the #greatamericanhistoryroadtrip,) to visit some of the places she teaches her students about each year.

所以她做了。克鲁克每年都会进行一次15天的自驾游(被称为“伟大的美国历史自驾游”)，参观她教学生的一些地方。

Places like Gettysburg, the Lincoln Memorial, Jamestown, even the site of the famous Alexander Hamilton-Aaron Burr duel.

像葛底斯堡，林肯纪念堂，詹姆斯敦，甚至著名的亚历山大·汉密尔顿和亚伦·伯尔决斗的地点。

Each day, she went live for her students, embracing the technology and distance, to bring her students closer to what they're learning in class. She also posted daily highlights to her YouTube.

每天，她都会为学生们现场直播，拥抱技术和距离，让学生们更接近他们在课堂上所学的东西。她还在YouTube上发布了每日的精彩内容。

Day 1: Clunk went live via Zoom from Williamsburg, Va. on Aug. 24.

第一天:8月24日，克鲁克在弗吉尼亚州威廉斯堡通过Zoom进行现场直播。

Clunk's students seem to have enjoyed her journey. "I just love it; I just love it!" Julia Franco, one of Clunk's students, told Morning Edition. "I don't know how to explain; it just makes me more excited to learn."

克鲁克的学生们似乎很喜欢她的旅程。”我就是喜欢它;我就是喜欢它!”克鲁克的一名学生茱莉亚·弗兰科告诉《晨报》我不知道怎么解释，这只会让我对学习更感兴趣。”

The road trip hasn't all gone as planned. Along the way Cluck's made adjustments to her itinerary to comply with another new reality of the pandemic: travel restrictions.

公路旅行并没有完全按计划进行。一路上，克鲁克调整了她的行程，以适应流行病的另一个新现实:旅行限制。

While she'd planned to head to Boston as part of her trip, by the time she'd made it to New York on Aug. 28, she had to change plans.

虽然她计划将波士顿作为行程的一部分，但当她在8月28日到达纽约时，她不得不改变计划。

"When I pulled in last night, remembering how hard this area was hit with COVID," Cluck shared in her YouTube video for day 6 of her journey, "there's a travel ban in place for people from Texas ... So I am turning back and heading South."

“当我昨晚到达时，想起了COVID病毒对这个地区的影响有多严重，”克鲁克在她旅行的第六天在YouTube上分享了她的视频，“这里对来自德克萨斯州的人实施了旅行禁令……所以我掉头向南走。”

Cluck is back in Austin now. And should her school need to return to distance learning for all students, she's got another educational adventure mapped out.

克鲁克现在已经回到了奥斯汀。如果她的学校需要为所有学生恢复远程教育，她将为另一个教育冒险计划做好准备。
