Virtual Workshop for Educators, Women’s History Documented: Building Curriculum using Primary Sources

During this collaborative virtual workshop, educators will learn about developing women’s history curriculum for K-12 students in a variety of subject matters using strategies such as Teaching with Primary Sources (TPS) and historical empathy. This workshop will serve as a good refresher for educators who are familiar with TPS and historical empathy strategies and a great overview for those who have never used these strategies in their curriculum development.

Educators will also have the chance to engage in a conversation around their existing curriculum and collaborate on incorporating these strategies into current work. This workshop will be co-facilitated by NWHM museum educators and Dr. Katherine Perrotta, Assistant Professor of Middle Grades and Secondary Education at Mercer University Tift College of Education.

This session is required for all selected 2024 For Educators, By Educators participants but is open to other educators as well. 

This session is free but advanced registration is required. Those who attend will receive a certificate of completion. 

Please note: The National Women’s History Museum strives to provide programs that are accessible to all visitors. For questions, or to request accommodations such as an ASL interpreter or closed captioning, please email [email protected] at least 7 days in advance of the program. 

This workshop is sponsored in part by the Library of Congress Teaching with Primary Sources Eastern Region Program, coordinated by Waynesburg University.
