The Historical Thinking Summer Institute will take place 6-11 July 2015 in Vancouver, BC.
It is offered through UBC’s Centre for the Study of Historical Consciousness, in collaboration with the Museum of Vancouver, where the Institute will be held (see http://pdce.educ.ubc.ca/htsi2015/). It is designed for teachers, graduate students, curriculum developers and museum educators who want to enhance their expertise at designing and teaching history courses and programs with explicit attention to historical thinking. Participants will explore substantive themes of aboriginal-settler relations and human-nature relations over time.
Optional course credit is offered through the University of British Columbia.
A limited number of travel bursaries were provided on a competitive basis (see /drupal_blank/en/content/thenhier-funding-programs).
Bursaries are also available from the Canadian Museums Association to assist museum professionals in professional development training activities. More information is available at http://museums.in1touch.org/site/bursaries and http://museums.in1touch.org/site/bursaries_guidelines.
