Register Now: 2010 National Consortium for Teaching About Asia Seminar Program at UMBC
Beginning in January 2010, the National Consortium for Teaching About Asia (NCTA) and UMBC Center for History Education will conduct a seminar series on East Asia for K-12 teachers. The seminars will take place over 8 Saturday mornings (30 hours total) at UMBC, including one meeting at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore. Two follow-up workshops will be held in Fall 2010.
