2008 Summer Institute: Immigration and Settlement
June 23-27, 2008, at the Ohio Historical Center
If you are interested in attending this year's Summer Institute please contact Kristina Markel before May 1.
The Summer Institute is a graduate-level two-week seminar that offers participating teachers the opportunity to work closely with a number of the nation's leading scholars.
OSU faculty members will lecture, lead discussions of common readings, examine primary source documents, and engage teachers in debate and interpretation of recent scholarship and historical methods.
At the conclusion of the institute, teachers complete group research projects. Drawing upon their increased content knowledge, participants will prepare materials for their classrooms and share these materials with their colleagues in print and electronic format. In addition, they will present a performance piece based on their research.
Participating teachers receive two hours of graduate credit in history for satisfactory participation.
