Course Description:
The North Dakota Teacher Resource Coalition (NDTRC) is offering a three-day teacher institute entitled North Dakota’s Wars: the Civil War and the Cold War. Based at Valley City State University on June 26-28, we will model lessons, protocols and the strength of field experiences to help you develop learning opportunities. By combining history, geography, and environmental studies in a learning cohort we will exchange ideas, approaches and experiences to strengthen our practical teaching and learning activities.
This professional development opportunity will demonstrate team teaching, interdisciplinary curriculum development and implementation and the use of art and technology in strategies that engage students in meaningful activities. Participants will also become familiar with resources, tools, and information available through NDTRC and its members.
