Chancellor’s Day Workshop: Teaching the History of the Arab-Israeli Conflict Using Primary Sources
June 4 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm EDT
This Chancellor’s Day, join the Institute for Curriculum Services for a virtual workshop that will give you the resources and tools needed to accurately teach the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict within your classroom.
The Arab-Israeli conflict remains a deeply sensitive topic, often viewed through the lens of ancestral, religious, or ethnic identities. Because of this complexity, many educators feel hesitant or unprepared to address it. Through the lens of historical documents and critical inquiry, this interactive, 3-hour workshop uses primary sources to analyze the rise of Zionism and Arab Nationalism and to trace pivotal moments in the conflict from the late 1800s through the mid-2000s, including the successes and failures of the peace process as well as unresolved issues.
NY Educators: 3 hours of CTLE credit is available for this workshop.
This is an open workshop, led by one of our ICS educators, and is designed for current/future K-12 educators who teach/plan on teaching this content. Interested in setting up a PD? Contact us at [email protected].
