Postponed | 2024 EU in NC Study Tours | K-14 Educators
April 12 @ 5:00 pm - April 13 @ 5:00 pm
About EU in NC
The “EU in NC” Study Tours are intensive, development experiences for educators from across North Carolina and the southeast US. The Tours provide K-12, community college, and HBCU/MSI educators with in-depth knowledge of Europe critical for developing lesson plans and finding resources for teaching about contemporary Europe. The tours include meetings, discussions, and interactive sessions with faculty experts and practitioners in the Triangle on contemporary Europe and the EU. These sessions will both inform educators about European topics, and show them how to integrate content learned into the classroom.
Study tour participants receive certification of one continuing education credit and approximately 10 hours of professional development, provided they complete the post-tour lesson plan/module creation.
Hotel accommodations are provided for the tour, and participants traveling more than 40 miles round-trip will receive reimbursement of $.67/mile up to $50. Friday dinner and Saturday lunch will be provided, Saturday breakfast included in hotel accommodation.
Reimbursement is contingent upon completion of post-tour lesson plan/module development.
