9:00am-12:10pm (Eastern Time)
No events draw the world’s attention like the Olympics and Paralympics, especially for the host city and country. As we approach this summer’s games, we explore the many meanings of the Olympics for China, Japan, and South Korea, from displaying recovery to promoting democracy. We also highlight the Paralympics and the ways that Asian hosts have contributed to the Paralympic movement.
Join Dr. Ethan Segal, other scholars and master NCTA alums for an intriguing, engaging session, that will offer learning, interactive conversation, and practical suggestions for how to incorporate the Olympics and Paralympics into your teaching.
Pennsylvania and Michigan educators who participate in the workshop will receive ACT 48 Hours (educators from other states will receive a certificate of completion for professional development.)
This workshop is open to K-12 educators in our 11 state region (Alabama, Delaware, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia)
