Digital workshops for teachers of American Indian students
These workshops are produced by the U.S. Department of Education’s Teacher-to-Teacher Initiative in collaboration with the Office of Indian Education. They are intended to be useful for teachers who are teaching in remote villages, large urban districts, or suburban areas, whether they are new to teaching or veteran teachers who are curious to find new perspectives and resources.
If you have ideas, questions, or suggestions about the current workshops, or have a proposal for a new workshop, you can contact OIE by e-mail via Indianeducation@ed.gov, by phone at 202-260-7485, or by webform.
