Survey of Educator Awareness of TIH Resources
The Teaching Iowa History Project
As educators seek to incorporate Iowa history into Social Studies lessons, resources are being developed by members of the Governor's Iowa History Advisory Council to support educators.
Teaching Iowa History is a state-wide, multi-partner initiative led by the Iowa Museum Association to support educators in teaching the new Social Studies standards by creating instructional resources for grades K-12 built around the use of historical inquiry and primary sources from museum/archive collections.
The project provides an opportunity for pre-service teachers to learn to teach with primary sources in fulfillment of the new standards, and raises awareness of the benefits of museum/school educators working in partnership, as well as highlighting the role of museums as stewards of the historical and cultural fabric of Iowa.
