"From the Yucatan to 'the Halls of Montezuma' -- Mesoamerican

at the University of Oregon
July 14 - August 8, 2008

Deadline for applications:  March 3, 2008

This is a four-week summer institute for middle and high school  
faculty of history, art history, literature and Spanish selected from  
applicants around the United States. It is designed to facilitate the  
expanded integration of Mesoamerican cultural heritage materials –  
new discoveries and the latest research interpreting the same -- into  
curricular units or lesson plans that will appeal to a variety of  
learners and bring greater multicultural depth and understanding into  
the classroom. The institute, sponsored in part by the University of  
Oregon's Wired Humanities Project (WHP),  will also have an emphasis  
on multimedia. WHP hosts a number of electronic resources for  
students and scholars of Mesoamerica, including the Virtual  
Mesoamerican Archive, the online Nahuatl Vocabulary, and, coming  
soon, the Mapas Project, which is a digital collection of pictorial  
Mesoamerican manuscripts.
