2006-07 National Summer Institute for Educators: Making Diversity Work
July 19-22, 2006
By Invitation Only
Thirty-five educators from seven states will begin their two-year commitment as participants in the National Summer Institute for Educators. Participants will learn more about the Japanese American experience and collaborate to write lesson plans that they will pilot in their classrooms during the next school year. In July 2007, they will reconvene to share their lesson plans and continue discussions about how diversity enhances their work with students, and within their schools and profession.
The 2006 National Summer Institute for Educators is made possible, in part, by generous grants from The Hiroaki, Elaine & Lawrence Kono Foundation, the Institute of Museum and Library Services, Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc., and members and donors of the Japanese American National Museum. Co-sponsored by the [http://www.ncdemocracy.org National Center for the Preservation of Democracy].
