Landmarks of American History: Workshops for Community College Faculty
The National Endowment for the Humanities is supporting a new series of professional
development programs designed exclusively for two-year college teachers. Landmarks
of American History Workshops for Community College Faculty grew out of a similar
program for schoolteachers. These week-long, residence-based programs will provide
the opportunity for community college teachers to engage in intensive study
and discussion of important topics in American history at major historical sites
around the nation. They are intended primarily for full-time, part-time, and
adjunct faculty. Librarians and other college administrators are also eligible
to participate, subject to available space. Participants will receive a stipend
of $500 which is intended to help cover living expenses, books, and travel expenses
to and from the Workshop location. Travel supplements for those traveling long
distances will be available and will be allocated after participants are selected.
Landmarks Workshops are designed to give participants direct experiences in the interpretation of significant historical sites and the use of archival and other primary historical evidence. They include the best scholarship on a specific landmark or related cluster of landmarks, enabling participants to gain a sense of the importance of historical places, to make connections between what they learn in the Workshop and what they teach, and to develop teaching materials for their classrooms. Workshops also include some opportunities for research. Landmarks Workshops for the summer of 2005 are:
