Teach Asia:
Summer Institute for Secondary School Teachers
Program information:
The Summer Institute is an intensive week-long seminar for secondary school teachers to be held at Kalamazoo College. The Institute is designed to deepen an understanding of Asia and its main issues, and to improve teaching methods so that secondary school students learn more effectively about the multiple dimensions of Asian history, politics, and society, and other issues. It is the purpose of the Institute to build a community and network for Asian studies throughout Michigan and surrounding states in the Midwest.
The Summer Institute will be taught by a faculty member who specializes in Asian Studies. The topics and themes vary from year to year and will
be taught from an interdisciplinary perspective. During the course of the week, teachers will be aided in developing a course module to incorporate into their current courses in their respective schools.
Applications:
We will invite 10 secondary school teachers to attend the seminar each year.
Travel and accommodation will be provided if assistance is required. Participants will receive a modest stipend and continuing education credit. For more information and application form, please contact the Center for Asian Studies at Kalamazoo College, or download from this site:
