Brown University's Choices Program has many excellent resources for social studies teachers including "Teaching with the News." Many teachers are seeing the importance of Syria, but might lack the regional expertise to put it in context or to the time to link it with the curriculum. If that is the case (and even if it is not), this is the perfect place to find lesson plans on the ongoing Syrian conflict. Tags: political, MiddleEast, conflict, war. No comment yet.

The tourism board bills them as "a European Mediterranean country," distinctly separate from Spanish cultural identity. Implied also is a political distinction as well with their NATIONAL history museum (select language to view in English). A google image search for "Catalonia is not Spain" will yield excellent visual materials to support the political will for greater autonomy. How is heritage and history used to create a local identity? Whose heritage is it?

The political distinction is also a turning point in Europe. The vast majority of museums plays a significant role and classifies the different cultural history throughout Europe.
