Event Date
The UC Berkeley History-Social Science Project invites you to come learn about the Integrated Action Civics Project (IACP), which fosters justice-oriented student voice, agency, and civic empowerment in K-12 classrooms. Central to this approach is the introduction of strategies throughout your existing course to help students understand the process of social change, while offering new lenses for the study of course content. Students can apply their learned skills and scaffolds to engage in meaningful, authentic civic action in their communities.
The IACP strategies also support student exploration of Ethnic Studies concepts of identity, systems of oppression, hope and healing, and resistance and change.
The free 5-day institute will include:
Introduction to Integrated Action Civics for student empowerment
- Strategies for Student self-reflection & growth:
- Visioning Justice, Worldview, Identity and Power
- Change-analysis models and strategies:
Power & Stakeholder Analysis, Strategy Development, Student Advocacy
