⏰ Tomorrow! Kick off your #CivicLearningWeek with NCSS and @Thinking_Nation at this free webinar. We will be discussing a recent white paper published in @educationweek, and much more! ➡️ Sign up: hubs.li/Q02mq61D0 #citizenship #civics #k12 #edutwitter #learning
#CivicLearningWeek begins today! This week highlights civic learning as a nationwide priority for sustaining and strengthening our constitutional democracy. Find online and in-person events: civiclearningweek.org/events. @NCSSNetwork is a proud co-sponsor! #socialstudies
At a time when #EducatorShortage is real, it's humbling to read that my graduate teaching program will move to a new home (rather than shut down) and serve the next gen of aspiring teachers! timesunion.com/news/article/s…
Q6 (our final Q!): What might broad public support for history and social studies education mean for you, your students, and your community? #SSChat
Q5: There are many challenges facing public education in 2024. From your classroom perspective, where might policymakers and the media most productively focus their attention? #SSChat
Q3: National organizations are here to help, but our capacity is often stretched in many directions. How can we best direct our support to help advocate for your role? #SSChat

I’m so honored to be the recipient of @VAMuseums Anne Brownson Award. But this wasn’t just for me. This recognizes the work that our team at @vasocialstudies is doing to connect educators to Virginia’s vibrant museum community. I’m so proud to work with you all. ❤️
Thanks for joining #sschat. We've enjoyed hearing from you! @AHAhistorians and @NCSSNetwork serve our members and other educators as we all navigate the shifting policy landscape. Working together our community can help grow public support for history and social studies.
@LawrencePaska A6 Civicly engaged students Better reading scores #sschat i's amazing how far background knowledge goes
A6 A simple recognition that history education is important and the skills we teach can help Ss reach their goals inside and outside of school #sschat
A4) I wish the community knew about the needs of students beyond academic and all the roles Ts have in that and the extra hours we put in including emotionally. Also, how being vilified and disrespected has real effects on us #sschat
@wehedge @MrsC_Will @ShaunaIsHistory @GASocialStudies When I did NHD, I invited families in to see the projects. #sschat
A5. Not in classroom, but from district level, would be helpful for the media to report on what a lot of districts and organizations are doing that challenges the narrowing of what is taught. Lots of Ds & orgs creating materials that introduce a deep & complex curricula #sschat
Q5: There are many challenges facing public education in 2024. From your classroom perspective, where might policymakers and the media most productively focus their attention? #SSChat
@wehedge @ShaunaIsHistory We hold showcase nights for the arts, STEAM, and sports. Bring in local business owners, CTE, parents, admin, school board, etc. to showcase topics that are aligned. #sschat
A4, I wish people understood how much history content has evolved since they were in school. We present a more well rounded story now and that does not mean history is inaccurate it just means we are getting better at bringing in more voices .#sschat
A3) I was once at a Conf where part of the Conf was learning about issues and contacting your elected reps. It was powerful, collective, and effective! #sschat
A4: I live in a community where many do not have school-aged children. I wish they volunteered in schools to see all the really wonderful things happening beyond what the news reports. #sschat
@HSGlobalHistory Great suggestion. We're working on ideas along these lines. Would professional development opportunities about how to implement good materials also be useful? #sschat
A4 Teaching subjects in history is not picking a partisan side, but picking to teach history #sschat
