    From Conflict to Peace: The European Union Explained (How the EU Came to Be, How It All Works Today, and Its Greatest Challenges) Educators' Workshop

    The European Union Center at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign

    The European Union Center at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, invites PK-12 educators to take part in a summer workshop aimed at developing a more effective curriculum on the European Union. These materials may be incorporated into courses such as geography, government, politics, civics, foreign languages, world/U.S. history, and economics. Indiana educators will receive PGP’s.

    For more information and a tentative schedule, see here.

    The cost of attending the workshop is $90, payable by check to “University of Illinois.” Included in the workshop fee are three nights of lodging at Illini Tower and parking for the duration of the workshop. Breakfast and lunch will be provided June 23-25, and dinner will be provided on June 22. Participants will be expected to cover their own dinners on June 23 and 24. The EU Center will also provide a travel reimbursement of up to $150 based on mileage.

    Register by April 19. Questions may be directed to Sydney Lazarus (lazarus5@illinois.edu).
