We are seeking qualified applicants to participate in a four-week NEH
summer institute for middle and high school faculty of history, art
history, literature and Spanish selected from applicants around the
United States. The Institute, which includes a $3000 stipend, is
designed to facilitate the expanded integration of Mesoamerican
cultural heritage materials – new discoveries and the latest research
interpreting the same -- into curricular units or lesson plans that
will appeal to a variety of learners and bring greater multicultural
depth and understanding into the classroom. The Institute, sponsored
in part by the University of Oregon's Wired Humanities Project
(WHP), will also have an emphasis on multimedia. WHP hosts a number
of electronic resources for students and scholars of Mesoamerica,
including the Virtual Mesoamerican Archive, the online Nahuatl
Vocabulary, and, coming soon, the Mapas Project, which is a digital
collection of pictorial Mesoamerican manuscripts. For more
information, please go to our website - http://whp.uoregon.edu/
