(So, not sure if this is the appropriate board to post this in, so if not, admin feel free to move it)

As a teacher, I've often kicked around the idea of writing short AH vignettes from the perspective of the classroom. Some might be as a student in a history class, some might be from the perspective of the teacher, or maybe an administrator, or even a parent. And even within that, we might see different scenarios for the setting. Some could be the teacher lamenting an essay with all the wrong facts as he's grading, or a student stressing as he studies for a test, along with the more obvious teacher discussion/lecture that would easily lend itself to giving a glimpse of an alternate history.

I'm considering doing this as a series on my blog, and also posted here, and so I thought I'd get community input before I started.

1) does this potentially sound interesting to you all?

2) what are some TL suggestions that I could set these vignettes in? I may use some of my own existing TLs, but I'd be open to suggestions (either existing TLs by other authors as a sort of fanfic - and I'd ask and cooperate with authors if I did that where possible - or just vague TL ideas that I could make up on my own).

What are your thoughts/suggestions?
