Don't Miss Your Opportunity to Participate in History As It Happens
Opportunities like this happen only once every 100 years. Don't miss this chance of a lifetime to be part of history as it happens, 21st century-learning style. In 1908, the Democratic National Convention was held in Denver and this August, history is happening again. Participate in When History Happens.
Plan to attend the When History Happens conference, July 30 through August 1, to be held on the Auraria Campus near downtown Denver. The agenda and more information will be available soon.
Enroll in Teaching with Primary Sources - Colorado to receive training on how to get the most out of your participation in When History Happens. These valuable workshops are available without charge. Check the workshop schedule to review your options and get more details at the Teaching with Primary Sources website. Learn about the free electronic editions of The Denver Post and Rocky Mountain News and the free Colorado Historic Newspaper Collection.
When History Happens is sponsored by BCR, the Colorado State Library, Council on 21st Century Learning, Denver Newspaper Agency: Educational Services Department and Teaching with Primary Sources - Colorado.
Any Colorado educator is welcome to participate in this unique project. For more information, see the When History Happens website.
