Geography and History of the World Workshops
We help provide workshops to train Indiana high school teachers in the new Geography and History of the World state standards (PDF). Coordinated by IU’s Center for Social Studies and International Education (CSSIE), these workshops are offered in collaboration with four other IU area studies centers:
- African Studies Program
- Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies
- Inner Asian and Uralic National Resource Center
- Russian and East European Institute
The workshops provide the geography and history content and help teachers with course development in these world areas:
- Africa
- Central Eurasia
- East Asia
- Latin America and the Caribbean
- Russia and Eastern Europe
