Please share information about NMAI’s Native Knowledge 360° Teacher-in-Residence program with qualified teachers in your school, district, county, state, or organization.
 
The National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI) has begun a national education initiative called Native Knowledge 360° (NK360°) to promote the improvement of teaching and learning about American Indians.  In support of this effort, NMAI is looking for dynamic educators for its Teacher-in-Residence (TIR) and Summer Teacher-in-Residence (STIR) programs.
 
One teacher will be selected for each of the TIR and STIR programs. Working with staff and participating American Indian communities, the teachers will help create dynamic online lessons using the museum’s extensive resources and assist with testing of online materials. As a culmination of the residency, the selected teacher will create a unique project/activity/application or lesson for national classroom use.
Program descriptions and applications for both programs are attached to this email or click here for additional information.
Apply now. Applications are due by April 1, 2016. We invite you to participate in this exciting new program!
