The Smithsonian Institution, the MAS Teacher's Academy, the Intercultural Development
Research Association (IDRA), and UTSA's Institute of Texan Cultures (ITC) invite you
to participate in a two-part workshop designed to support the innovative teaching of
Mexican American Studies in K-12 classes. The program will feature authentic digital
cultural resources from the ITC (a Smithsonian affiliate) and the Smithsonian’s digital
collections to aid you in developing and enhancing your MAS curriculum.
The two workshops will take place virtually on:
Monday, July 26th, 9:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m.
Friday, July 30th, 9 a.m.-12 p.m.
* Participants who register must attend both workshops. Part I will include an orientation
to using resources from the ITC and the Smithsonian Learning Lab. Part II will be a
curriculum workshop where participants will share a digital collection that draws from
museum resources. This two-part program is limited to 20 teachers who will receive a $250
stipend upon completion of both workshops and creation of a digital collection for the
Smithsonian's Learning Lab. Teachers will also earn 3 Continuing Education Units for
each workshop.
This program received Federal support from the Latino Initiatives Pool, administered by
the Smithsonian Latino Center.
