Our seminars are: small group discussions focused on peer learning; grounded in primary documents; facilitated by a scholar of American history or government; topics are tailored to your district's needs.
Our seminars aim to be serious conversations about the enduring issues of American history and government because conversation is the best way to deepen learning. Equally important, what a serious conversation requires of its participants – concern for the truth, listening to others, waiting one’s turn to speak, modest but assertive statements of one’s views, respect for the views of others, etc. – are, writ large, the virtues required of citizens in our republic.
Our teacher partners come from all over the country, and participate in a variety of free one-day and multi-day online or in person seminars; professional certification programs; and webinars. Some enter our Master's in American History and Government program. All benefit from our discussion-based seminars and the community of learning and practice they foster.
At its best, an American history, government or civics class strengthens the American republic by inculcating the manners, understanding, and inclinations self-governing citizens require.
