You'll need to scroll down the page for the list of 2008 programs. Most of these programs are free, and give teachers a stipend for participating. Keep in mind that you're tied up with the Explore History summer institute between June 23rd and 26th.
Here's a sample of the type of programs available that came to my inbox recently:
"INVENTING AMERICA: LOWELL AND THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION"
The Tsongas Industrial History Center invites educators from across the U.S. to apply to "Inventing America: Lowell and the Industrial Revolution," a week-long summer Landmarks of American History and Culture workshop held in historic Lowell, MA, and funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Part of the "We the People" program, this workshop is free of charge. All participants receive a $500.00 stipend for food and lodging, plus a travel subsidy.
The "Inventing America" workshop combines scholarly presentations with on-site investigations of the canals, mills, worker housing, and exhibits of Lowell National Historical Park. In addition to Lowell's landmark resources, we will use drama, hands-on simulations, historical fiction, and field studies at Old Sturbridge Village, Walden Pond, and Concord, MA museums to bring history to life.
Who: K-12 teachers (public & private), administrators, and other school personnel
When: June 22-June 27; July 13-July 18; and July 27-August 1, 2008 (choose one week)
Where: Tsongas Industrial History Center at the historic Boott Cotton Mills, Lowell, MA.
The Tsongas Center is a partnership of Lowell National Historical Park and UMass Lowell's Graduate School of Education. CEUs/PDPs and graduate credit available through UMass Lowell.
