Event Summary
The following summary is from the Global Studies Outreach at Harvard website.
The Global Studies Outreach Committee at Harvard University is pleased to announce our summer 2016 teacher workshop: “Journalism: Production and Consumption Across the Globe.” This four-day workshop will take place on Harvard’s Cambridge campus from August 1-4, 2016. It is intended for middle, high school and community college educators, primarily focusing on those that teach humanities and social sciences but open to teachers of all subjects. The workshop will feature presentations by scholars, experts, and journalists on the production and consumption of journalism and media throughout the world; explore pedagogy and skill-building techniques to help educators and students become better consumers and producers of journalism; and provide an introduction to relevant classroom resources. To support deep conversations around curriculum and pedagogy as well as content, we have partnered with Project Zero, a research group based at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. The cost of participating in the workshop is $50; although we cannot offer travel or accommodation, we do provide breakfast and lunch daily during the workshop.
In addition to the workshop, we will once again offer the Globalizing the Classroom (GtC) Fellowship. The GtC Fellowship allows a select group of workshop participants to remain connected to the Global Studies Outreach Committee and to each other as they take part in ongoing conversations and professional development on issues related to journalism and global studies throughout the 2016-2017 academic year. Additional professional development, devoted to both area studies and media studies content and pedagogical approaches, will primarily take place online, with a culminating in-person seminar to be scheduled in June 2017.
Applications for BOTH the workshop and the fellowship are due April 15, 2016. For more information on both opportunities, including specific information on the application process, please visit the Global Studies Outreach at Harvard website.
