Workshop: Bringing Student Civic Learning & Reflection to Life with Infographics

Join Facing History and KQED to explore ways students can identify, research, and communicate about civic issues they care about.

Bring together research skills and visual design as a way to open new, differentiated pathways for students’ civic learning and expression with Facing History & Ourselves and KQED Education. Building research and civic literacy skills is vital as students learn about what makes democracy thrive and endure. Join us for an online workshop and explore teaching strategies and ready-to-use curricular resources that develop student’s civic knowledge and skills using Facing History’s new unit, Teaching What Makes Democracy Work. We’ll also create infographics with KQED and learn first hand how the language of visual design can inspire students to share their voice and communicate complex ideas and data.

Participants will walk away with planning tools for student-created infographics and methods to research civic issues.

This workshop is most applicable for middle and high school educators.

This event will be hosted online via Zoom and will be recorded. Captioning will be provided during this workshop.
