USA: The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum’s 14th Museum Teacher Fellowship

Overview

The National Institute for Holocaust Education of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum announces the 2010-2011 Teacher Fellowship Program, to be held July 11-16, 2010.

Each year up to 15 educators in grades 7 through 12 and community college faculty are designated as new Museum Teacher Fellows. These educators must show evidence of extensive knowledge of Holocaust history, successful teaching experience, and participation in community and professional organizations.

Benefits of this fellowship

Teacher Fellows participate in a five-day, all-expense paid summer institute at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., designed to immerse participants in advanced historical and pedagogical issues. Following the summer institute, Fellows are expected to create and implement an outreach project in their schools, colleges, communities, or professional organizations. In July of the following year, Fellows will attend a follow-up program at the Museum to assess their various efforts and to continue their study of the Holocaust with Museum staff and noted speakers.


Who is eligible?

Secondary school (7th– 12th grade) and community college history, social studies, foreign-language, and English teachers, librarians, and instructional media specialists, who have an extensive knowledge of Holocaust history, have taught the Holocaust for at least five years in U.S. schools, and are active participants in community and professional organizations, may apply. (Educators with less than five years’ experience teaching about the Holocaust should apply to the Museum’s Belfer Conference.)
