CHOICES

The Choices Program is a Brown University program housed in the Department of History. We work to increase access to high-quality curriculum content and strengthen education about history and current events in secondary schools in the United States and beyond. In order to accomplish this, we collaborate with leading scholars to develop curriculum materials and provide teacher professional development... Choices also conducts a variety of professional development workshops to equip teachers to integrate Choices materials into their classrooms. In addition, onsite professional development is conducted with school districts that contract with the Choices Program... Choices provides high-quality summaries and primary source documents. It puts students in the shoes of the decision makers. I really like how students are asked to rank their attitudes and priorities about a topic before and after studying the unit. It's rewarding to reflect on how new information challenges our assumptions..
