WHH Summer Teachers Conference Resources
|
|
On July 30, 31 and August 1, the WHH consortium held a conference on the Auraria campus near downtown Denver. The goal of the conference was to provide educators the opportunity to become an active member in the When History Happens process, and specifically, the Democratic National Convention case study for 2008. Each day of the conference had a specific theme and allowed educators to slowly dive deeper into the learning strategies and resources that make this occasion such a powerful learning opportunity.
Thanks to everyone involved for making this conference such a huge success! |
