2024 NCSS Inquiry and Teaching with Primary Sources Summer Institute

Engage in inquiry using the C3 Framework and the Library of Congress’ digital primary sources at the Boise State University in Boise, ID from June 10-12, 2024. National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) is proud to invite methods professors, doctoral students, and classroom teachers to a special free professional learning institute this summer!

The NCSS Inquiry and Teaching with Primary Sources (TPS) Summer Institute brings together social studies methods professors, pre-service, and in-service teachers to pilot chapters from the newly released set of methods texts, Teaching with Primary Sources to Prepare Students for College, Career, and Civic Life.  Participants will develop model curriculum inquiries that can be adapted for their methods courses and classroom curriculum using these free texts and other Library of Congress resources.

Texts developed as part of the NCSS TPS project, Inquiry and Teaching to Prepare for Career, College, and Civic Life, generously supported by the Library of Congress Teaching with Primary Sources grant.

Event sponsored in part through a grant from the Library of Congress Teaching with Primary Sources program and the Western Region program, coordinated by Metropolitan State University of Denver (MSU Denver) in support of Inquiry and Teaching to Prepare for Career, College, and Civic Life. *$100 stipends will be awarded to the first 50 registrants. All social studies educators are welcome to attend.
