Join us for an engaging K-12 curriculum resource workshop in which we examine the island of Taiwan's rich and compelling historical narrative as well as the important role it plays in today's geopolitical and economic landscape. This workshop will also include strategies for incorporating the study of Taiwan into the K-12 classroom with the award-winning interactive curriculum resource website, Centering Taiwan in Global Asia. A PDF of online resources will also be provided to all participants.

To complement the free, online resources offered to all participants, the first 20 K-12 educators who register, attend, and fully participate in the workshop will also receive a complimentary copy of Why Taiwan Matters: Small Island, Global Powerhouse by Shelley Rigger.

Pennsylvania teachers who complete the workshop will receive Act 48 hours.

For teachers in other states, we can provide you with a Certificate of Completion.
