2023-24 World History Learning Community-- Applicant Data Intake

JavaScript isn't enabled in your browser, so this file can't be opened. Enable and reload.

Between November 2023 and May 2024, come together with other educators in a virtual learning environment to read and discuss books in the field of world history. The community will then meet over the school year in three to four sessions, for two hours at a time of intellectually rich and collegial conversations. Book discussions are facilitated by International Institute Outreach Coordinators, and, occasionally, by scholars at the University of Michigan and other leading institutions.

Teachers must purchase their own paperback copies of the books and will be reimbursed after they attend the virtual discussion. Michigan teachers are also eligible for free State Continuing Education Clock Hours (SCECHs) from the Michigan Department of Education.

The World History Learning Community is open to all K-14 educators (K-12 in-service teachers and community college faculty) across the U.S. Space is limited to 20 participants per session.

This initiative is a collaboration between the Center for Middle Eastern & North African Studies (CMENAS), the Center for South Asian Studies (CSAS), the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (LACS) and the African Studies Center (ASC) at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor.
