Teacher Symposium at UWF: Citizenship and Statesmanship
The University of West Florida, with the support of the Jack Miller Center, is hosting a three-day symposium in Pensacola for Escambia, Santa Rosa, and Okaloosa County teachers.
The symposium, through the study of primary sources, will focus on the roles, rights, and responsibilities of American citizens, as well as individual citizens who demonstrated principled leadership in challenging times.
Scholar sessions will be led by Megan Russo (University of St. Thomas – Houston), Samuel Postell (Clemson University), and David Upham (University of Dallas).
The program will also feature curriculum application sessions led by regional social studies coordinators focused on helping participants develop teaching strategies and lesson plans to engage with the primary sources discussed.
Participants will receive a $300 stipend for completion of the symposium. The deadline to apply is May 1.
