Teaching Asia in World History Institute

From: Michael Weber, Gettysburg College (mweber@gettysburg.edu)


We are pleased to announce this summer's World History Institute at Gettysburg College, focused upon Asia in World History. During July 26 to 31, we are inviting teachers at the middle school, high school, and collegiate level to join us for a week of instruction and conversation at the college. This year Michael Adas, Howard Spodek, and Megan Greene will be our guest lecturers; in addition, we will have experienced master teachers, members of Gettysburg's faculty, and specialists in using computers in world history instruction and research on hand. Of course, we are going to offer tours of the Battlefield and the Eisenhower farm just for our group, accompanied by experienced guides. Accommodations are in single rooms with private baths.

Last year we had a great group of participants from across the United States-from middle school to collegiate teachers--and we are looking forward to another fun and worthwhile session.

If you have any questions, you can email me (mweber@gettysburg.edu) or Liz
Johns (johnel05@gettysburg.edu) for registration information.
