Andrew Steven Mills
Historian | Educator | Curriculum Writer
I am a history and social science teacher with seven years of experience as a global teacher-scholar, professional conference speaker, and residential faculty.
​​​
My approach to history and humanities education is one of simplicity: I believe all students learn best when provided with opportunities to explore inclusive, complex, and authentic narratives that build upon their innate curiosities and passions.
I study the confluence of memory, the body, and the environment in modern histories of Japan and the world. My current research investigates the narration and perception of post-atomic bodies in the aftermath of destruction at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I am also working on a long-term digital project to support my recently developed seminar course, Monsoon Asia.
