    January 11, 2014 10:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. Free of Charge and Open to the Public Lunch Provided for Registered Attendees Register at: http://doodle.com/ye8pzpgscagbg7fx Teachers have often commented that it is difficult to locate materials that help them incorporate women and women’s history into their social studies lesson plans. The Alabama Women: Their Lives and Times Symposium hopes to help address that problem. It is will contribute to the completion of the book of essays of the same time for the University of Georgia Press, and incorporate the insight of attending teachers in creating a companion series of lesson plans to accompany the volume. The symposium will showcase presentations by nine scholars from around their region who are contributing essays to Alabama Women: Their Lives and Times. While these presentations will sketch out the significance of particular women or groups of women for Alabama’s history and that of the nation, the sessions will also further the development of lesson plans tied directly to the essays. In particular, we seek the input of participating teachers in tying the content information in the essays to state history standards, and help making the material accessible to students. Thus teachers at the symposium will not only gain content material that would allow them to more easily incorporate women and gender of a variety of races and time periods into their classroom, it would also give them a formative role in the development of the lesson plans that we will create to accompany the book. The symposium will be composed of four one-hour sessions, each focused around a particular period in Alabama history. We anticipate providing teachers with individual primary sources for possible incorporation into their lessons. We will provide documentation of professional development time of one hour per session, up to four hours for the entire symposium.
