82. Teaching The Constitution - The U.S. Constitution Online - USConstitution.net Some suggestions on how to use this site to teach the Constitution to students . How many states had to ratify the Constitution to put it into effect? http://www.usconstitution.net/constteach.html

Teaching the Constitution Federal law passed in 2004 requires that all schools that receive federal funding provide a course to all students on the Constitution on Constitution Day, September 17. The law is known as H.R. 4818, and the text is found at section 111(b): Each educational institution that receives Federal funds for a fiscal year shall hold an educational program on the United States Constitution on September 17 of such year for the students served by the educational institution. This law does not distinguish between elementary, secondary, or college-level institutions, so must be interpreted to apply to all levels. This page offers several suggestions for how the very broad subject of "The Constitution" can be taught for high-school level students (as well as printables for younger students). Teachers at other levels can use the suggestions as a basis for lesson plans for younger or older students. Also, the law does not specify what the "educational program" should consist of. This provides a lot of leeway in your presentation. The following pages on this site may be useful for various grade levels: The Constitution in its entirety (HTML version) The Constitution in its entirety (plain text) The Constitution presented in sections The Constitution Explained The Constitution for Kids (grades 8-12) The Constitution for Kids (grades 4-7) The Constitution for Kids (grades K-3) ... Constitutional FAQ - Find it Yourself The Constitution can be brought into many subject areas. This page has information that can be used in some of those.

NATIONAL WOMEN’S HISTORY PROJECT From a Grassroots Organization into a National Institution 25 YEARS of Writing Women Back into History In 1980, we were a group of women who noticed that women were absent from our texts. No more than 3% of the content was devoted to women. Girls had few role models. Girls and boys and many adults assumed women did nothing important. This perception needed to be addressed. We convinced Congress and the White House of the need for our nation to celebrate and recognize women’s role in history on an annual basis. As a result of our efforts, the week of March 8th (International Women’s Day) was officially designated as National Women’s History Week. In 1987, we led the successful campaign to have the entire month of March declared National Women’s History Month. We mobilize and unify the national celebrations of Women's History Month in March each year by choosing an annual theme.

But raise the standard, and, by a spontaneous movement, the mass will rise again and reach it. Horace Mann's First Annual Report (1837) INTRODUCTION In 1993, Alaskans embarked on a campaign to bring higher standards and accountability to their public school system. The cornerstone of this effort was the development of content standards in ten core subject areas. The standards represent what Alaskans want students to know and be able to do as a result of their public schooling. This booklet presents the content standards and their associated key elements for English/Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography, Government and Citizenship, Skills for a Healthy Life, Arts, World Languages, and Technology. During 1994 and 1995, the Alaska State Board of Education adopted these standards and key elements as voluntary guidelines for Alaska's schools.

Recent Additions 1 August 2005 Perhaps no other episode in American history better represents the courage, determination, and dedication of the American soldier than the epic journey of the Corps of Discovery. In May 1804, Captain Meriwether Lewis, Captain William Clark, and a select group of volunteers from the United States Army and civilian life ventured west towards the Pacific coast. The skill, teamwork, and courage of each soldier contributed significantly to the success of the expedition. When the soldiers finally returned in September 1806, their journey had already captured the admiration and imagination of the American people. Over the past two hundred years, the Lewis and Clark Expedition has become famous as the triumph of human achievement. Lewis and Clark Commemorations on the National Mall, Washington, DC Let the Center of Military History teach you more about the People , and Mission of the US Army Corps of Discovery.

I am a full time lecturer at San Diego State University (currently on the 2003 job market) and I usually teach US Survey to Reconstruction as a lower division course and also as a specialty for students on a Teacher Ed track. I abandoned textbooks some time ago, frustrated by the very issues McClymer voiced. My teaching philosophy is to allow students to be the historians, and to take their learning experience into their own hands by "doing history." That said, I have used my own interactive website, made use of many other websites, used film, power points, etc. Students have gone "into the field" to do history including cemetery projects, oral history projects, created teaching modules, etc. Every semester I struggle to find new ways or revamp projects to produce the best results possible. In the end I believe that my methods and philosophy have had an impact on students and how they think about history. My teaching evaluations are strong, students often tell me I've changed the way they thing about the subject and share horror stories of history classes past.

In DOL Printer-friendly version ( HTML PDF Nature of the Work Working Conditions ... Sources of Additional Information Significant Points Public school teachers must have at least a bachelor’s degree, complete an approved teacher education program, and be licensed. Many States offer alternative licensing programs to attract people into teaching, especially for hard-to-fill positions. Excellent job opportunities are expected as a large number of teachers retire over the next 10 years, particularly at the secondary school level; opportunities will vary somewhat by geographic area and subject taught. Nature of the Work About this section Back to Top Teachers act as facilitators or coaches, using interactive discussions and “hands-on” approaches to help students learn and apply concepts in subjects such as science, mathematics, or English. They utilize “props” or “manipulatives” to help children understand abstract concepts, solve problems, and develop critical thought processes. For example, they teach the concepts of numbers or of addition and subtraction by playing board games. As the children get older, the teachers use more sophisticated materials, such as science apparatus, cameras, or computers. To encourage collaboration in solving problems, students are increasingly working in groups to discuss and solve problems together. Preparing students for the future workforce is the major stimulus generating the changes in education. To be prepared, students must be able to interact with others, adapt to new technology, and think through problems logically. Teachers provide the tools and the environment for their students to develop these skills.

For Release April 17 NSU Hosts Summer Advanced Placement Institute in U.S. History High School Teachers to Receive Training to Prepare Students The South Dakota Board of Regents will host an Advanced Placement Institute in United States history at Northern State University from July 12 to 17, 1998. The institute will be offered to teachers who want to prepare high school students for the Advanced Placement examination in U. S. history. The Advanced Placement (AP) Program is administered by the College Board. It offers high school students an opportunity to study courses that are equivalent to first-year college courses. Following instruction in special AP courses, in honors classes, or in extra independent study, the students can take examinations that demonstrate they have obtained the knowledge and skills of comparable college courses. When those students later enroll in a college or university that accepts AP credit, they can present their AP scores. Minimum passing test scores are accepted by thousands of colleges and universities that participate in the program. "High school students who participate in AP courses save themselves time and money later, when they enroll in college," said Perry. "If they attend a college or university that accepts AP credit, they may earn credits or they may be allowed to skip lower level courses and start at more advanced levels."
