Educator Professional Development: Rights and WWI

Teachers, here's a professional development opportunity designed just for you. The National WWI Museum and Memorial is hosting an online session focused on how rights were expanded, challenged, and restricted during World War I, and how the upheaval of that era reshaped civic life in the United States. This is a chance to deepen your understanding of these complex historical topics so you can bring them into your classroom with confidence and nuance. This professional development session is part of a series the museum offers throughout the year, each diving into different aspects of WWI and its relevance to students today. Whether you teach history, civics, or social studies, you'll gain insights and teaching angles that help students grapple with how wartime affects rights and communities. It's a valuable way to expand your own knowledge while connecting with other educators who are passionate about bringing this important period to life for their students.
