Dive into constitutional thinking skills and media literacy at this professional learning session at the National Constitution Center. Using resources from the NCC and PBS LearningMedia, participants will engage with tools that empower teachers and students to deepen constitutional understanding, evaluate media materials, and build inquiry skills that strengthen curiosity. Teachers will receive breakfast and lunch, a letter certifying the number of professional learning hours earned, and a small stipend in recognition of their time. Act 48 credit hours will also be available for educators from Pennsylvania.
