National Constitution Center’s Summer Workshops and Institutes

This summer, educators can join other teachers from across the country and constitutional scholars from across the philosophical spectrum for virtual summer educator programs with the National Constitution Center.

During these programs, educators work with content experts to deepen their knowledge of the history and modern understandings of constitutional topics. Through working with master teachers and the education teams from the Center, participants discover and develop innovative, nonpartisan ways to make the content relevant to their students. Educators gain new content knowledge, teaching tools, classroom-ready resources, and new skills for improving constitutional literacy.

These summer programs are open to educators working with grades 5–12 at public, charter, independent, parochial, and other schools. They are free to attend, but successful applications are required.

Information on the 2021 virtual summer programs can be found below.

This summer, the Center is offering the following programs:

• July 7—9, Constitutional Conversations and Civil Dialogue Virtual Workshop
• July 11—16, Building the U.S. Constitution Virtual Summer Teacher Institute
• July 18—23, Battles for Freedom and Equality Virtual Summer Teacher Institute
• July 26—28, Bill of Rights Virtual Summer Teacher Workshop

All programs are free with a successful application. Applications will be accepted through February 26, 2021.
