The Civic Learning Institute offers online courses for teachers and leaders in K-12 and higher education

Gain new insights and develop strategies to strengthen civic and history education in your classroom and school! The Civic Learning Institute offers engaging, interactive online courses for teachers and leaders in K-12 and higher education in which you will:

  • Deepen your understanding of critical concepts and content in US history and civics in courses designed and led by leading experts.
  • Enhance your teaching skills by experiencing first hand the powerful approaches to supporting learning that you can then use either in your own classroom to support student learning or in your school or department to support the learning of colleagues. 
  • Engage in discussions with other educators from across the country.
  • Develop (or revise) either a learning experience for students or a professional learning experience for colleagues that you can use in your own context.
  • Receive feedback and support from experienced educators who serve as coaches in the courses.

The first course, Our Declaration: “We the People” and the Declaration of Independence, taught by Harvard professor Danielle Allen, will begin October 7.

Registration for Our Declaration: “We the People” and the Declaration of Independence online course closes on October 4th!

Each course is aligned with the Roadmap to Educating for American Democracy.  Developed by a cross-ideological group of 300 educators, scholars, and practitioners, the Roadmap provides guidance for creating powerful civic and history learning experiences to support students in becoming skilled, motivated, and responsible participants in US constitutional democracy.
