Hello AHTC teachers,
The American Red Cross will be hosting another workshop in town building off the Humanitarian Law workshop that we hosted last October. This workshop, on April 16th, will look at teaching humanitarian issues in a way to motivate students to think about themselves as part of a global community. If you are interested, the link to register is at the bottom of the page.
Saturday, 16 April 2011
I-Hotel Conference Center at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
This forum will introduce American Red Cross modules used to explore humanitarian issues in the classroom and is applicable to teachers of World Literature, Current Events, World History, and US History.
Educators will examine "Responsibility to Protect" by using real examples from historical and present-day conflicts. Through hands-on exercises, participants will learn to motivate students to think like global citizens. The workshop also includes a keynote speaker and guided review of online resources.
This training is provided free of charge and teachers can earn CDPUs.
Organized by the Center for Global Studies at the University of Illinois with the Central Illinois American Red Cross.
