Teachers,
The UAB Department of History welcomes you to our teacher workshop series this summer. Workshops are sponsored by the Alabama Humanities Association which is generously providing an $80 per diem to offset any costs associated with attending the workshop.
We hope you will join us as we review the new Alabama Course of Study standards in history. Each workshop will take place on the UAB campus and include dynamic speakers, creating activities for the classroom, and time to network. Registration is required and limited to 23 seats per workshop session. Please see the attached flyer for more information.
We hope to see you this summer!
