Online – Feedback—Improving Source Work
February 10, 2027 @ 7:30 am - 8:30 am CST

Focus on strengthening how sources are selected, used, and taught. Participants will explore strategies for helping teachers move beyond surface-level source activities, and primary source work that confirms pre-taught narratives towards using sources as evidence, perspective, and tools for reasoning. Emphasis will be placed on improving opportunities for student analysis and argumentation.
The Minnesota Department of Education, in partnership with the Minnesota Humanities Center, will host virtual sessions to support implementation of the 2021 K-12 Academic Standards in Social Studies, held monthly during the 2026–27 school year. These sessions are open to anyone with building or district-level responsibilities for curriculum planning and development in all social studies content areas, including curriculum directors, department leads, and teachers. Pre-registration is required for all sessions.
K-12 Educators will receive 1 clock hour upon completion of the session.
