Learning Outcomes:

Primary sources in a variety of media—including manuscripts, photographs, maps, architectural drawings, sound recordings, and motion picture film—can be powerful teaching tools. The Library of Congress supports K-16 teachers with primary source-inspired programs, classroom materials, fellowships, and grants. This session will introduce a sampling of these opportunities and allow time for Q&A, as well as participant input about their favorite Library resources for educators.
