Innovators in Civic Education Fellowship 2021-22

Deadline extended to Friday, April 30, 2021.

The David Mathews Center (DMC) is now accepting applications for its Innovators in Civic Education Fellowship!

This fellowship provides classroom and community-based educators with the resources and training they need to bring high-quality, civics-forward education to their classroom. The skills learned during the fellowship can benefit teachers in any discipline or grade-level who hope to integrate civics or social studies into their curriculum. 

Fellows will assist the DMC in expanding and improving the impact that the Center’s educational programming has within schools and communities. The DMC’s educational programming and resources emphasize the way that place-based, inquiry-based, and discussion-based education can prepare students to be active citizens. Through our work, we aim to cultivate essential skills such as critical thinking, perspective-taking, active-listening, and a desire for collaboration; skills that not only benefit students in the classroom but in community life and their career.

Application and all supporting material must be submitted by 11:59 PM CST on Friday, April 23rd, 2021 to Gabrielle Lamplugh, glamplugh@mathewscenter.org
