Teacher Training Workshop
The American Indian Center has been awarded a grant from the North Carolina Humanities Council to hold a teacher training workshop for the new curriculum guide entitled, North Carolina American Indian Studies: A Curriculum Enrichment Project of the North Carolina Humanities Council.
Upcoming Workshop
Implementing the K-12 Curriculum on North Carolina American Indians
Friday, October 30, 2009
(Note: Teachers are required to attend full day of workshop on Friday.)
Location: Robeson Community College
School districts with Title VII Indian Education programs were invited to participate in this project by identifying teachers to send to the workshop. Teachers will be trained on how to use the curriculum guide to create lesson plans. Educators will also receive training on how to conduct similar mini-workshops in their home school districts to train additional teachers in their area. LEARN NC staff will introduce their available resources to teachers.
REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED!
ATTENTION: If you are still interested in receiving this training after our registration has closed, please contact us. Teachers who attend our workshop are required to conduct similar mini-workshops in their home school districts to continue training additional teachers. We will gladly connect you with the appropriate contact person in closest proximity to you so that you may attend one of these workshops in the near future!
