Historic Sites Colorado #2 - Colorado Springs Series: Discovering Your Educational Community Resources Saving the Past for Our Future: Historic Sites Colorado #2 - Colorado Springs EDUO 9805 One semester Credit/Unit Instructor – Eric Thompson [email protected] Course Syllabus Course Description The purpose of this course is to provide teachers with the opportunity to relive history by touring landmarks of interest from the National Register of Historic Places and other identified local landmarks and museums in the Colorado Springs Area. Viewing and learning about these persevered sites can bring history alive and make learning more meaningful for classes at any grade level. Learning about the unique educational programs these historic sites provide can then be shared by each teacher with their particular school site and/or classroom in the way of fieldtrip experiences, cultural activities, and additional supplemental learning experiences that will enhance the curriculum of any grade level. Course Objectives In this course participants will have opportunity: 1. To learn what educational programs and other opportunities are available for their students at four outstanding historical sites. 2. To further their knowledge of local history as well as the histories of other community historic sites by participating in tours of the exhibits in the Pioneer Museum as well as participating in one of the walking tours. 3.
