Larry+H.+Miller+2010


 * L.H. Miller Summer Seminars for teachers.** The Larry H. Miller Education Project and Zion’s Bank have just announced the following History Seminars for the summer of 2010:


 * [|Foundations of American History and Literature: June 10—June 16 : 2010] **
 * [|Lewis and Clark: 2010: June 24—June 30 : 2010] **
 * [|Civil War: The Eastern Theater: July 8—July 14 : 2010] **

Teachers may begin applying immediately by visiting the Larry H. Miller Education Project website at [|www.millereducation.org]. **The deadline for application is January 8th, 2010.**

In addition to having all their expenses covered, participating teachers also receive teaching materials and may receive Weber State University graduate credit. Teachers who are selected are required to attend a pre-seminar meeting and a post-seminar meeting in the Salt Lake area.

The seminars aim to improve teaching in history throughout the state by providing hands-on instruction at historically significant sites. These seminars focus on the “what” and “how” of teaching by coupling intensive on-site education (the what) from distinguished professors with pedagogical strategies (the how) from experienced classroom teachers. The seminars are designed to inform, inspire, and support excellent classroom teaching.
