The CIVIC ENGAGEMENT COURSE is now available at EL/Civics Online at
www.elcivicsonline.org <http://www.elcivicsonline.org/> 

 

EL/Civics Online is a free professional development opportunity for ESL,
EL/Civics, and Citizenship teachers and volunteers at
www.elcivicsonline.org <http://www.elcivicsonline.org/> .  EL/Civics
online is composed of this new course on teaching Civic Engagement,
along with courses for teaching U.S. History, U.S. Government, and the
Naturalization Process as well as a tutorial on lesson planning.  

 

The new Civic Engagement course shows teachers how to facilitate
students' awareness about their communities, becoming a part of their
community, and giving back to their community.  In addition all of these
courses allow educators to:  

   *  Participate in self-paced online professional development 

   *  Create and obtain EL/Civics lesson plans 

   *  Access timely and relevant resources 

   *  Download classroom-ready handouts 

   *  Keep all of their handouts and resources in a personal "My
Information Center."  

 

We hope that ESL, EL/Civics, and Citizenship teachers will take
advantage of this exciting opportunity at www.elcivicsonline.org
<http://www.elcivicsonline.org/> .  It's fun, educational, and best of
all, it's free!
