for Secondary Educators (SUSIs) Program. We encourage qualified applicants to
apply for this unique opportunity to join the program in the United States.
Program Overview
Study of the U.S. Institutes for
Secondary Educators (SUSIs) are intensive post-graduate level academic programs
that provide mid-career foreign secondary school educators and administrators
the opportunity to deepen their understanding of U.S. society, culture, values,
and institutions. The program goal is to
strengthen curricula and to enhance the quality of teaching about the United
States in secondary schools and other academic institutions abroad.
SUSIs for Secondary Educators
will take place at various academic institutions throughout the United States
over the course of five weeks in summer 2024, starting from late May or
early June 2024. Each Institute includes
a four-week academic residency and a one-week integrated study tour in
another region of the United States.
Program Description
The SUSIs Secondary Educators in
2024 will provide three multinational groups of 20 experienced secondary school
educators (including secondary school teachers, administrators, teacher
trainers, curriculum developers, textbook writers, Ministry of Education officials,
and others) with a deeper understanding of U.S. society, education, and culture
– past and present. The Institutes focus
on providing content and materials for participants to develop high school
level curricula about the United States.
Two of the Institutes are tailored for secondary school teachers; please
note that the Institutes for teachers focus on content and materials about the
United States rather than teaching methods and pedagogy. The third Institute is tailored to
experienced administrators, including teacher trainers, curriculum developers,
textbook writers, Ministry of Education officials, and others.
Through
a combination of traditional, multi-disciplinary, and interdisciplinary
approaches, program content will examine the history and evolution of U.S.
institutions and values, broadly defined.
The programs will also illuminate contemporary political, social, and
economic debates in American society.
The four-week academic residencies will take place at U.S. university
and college campuses and will consist of a balanced series of lectures, panels,
seminar discussions, readings, workshops, site visits, meetings with
practitioners in the field, and cultural activities. One-week study tours in a different region
will complement the academic residencies and showcase the cultural, geographic,
and ethnic diversity of the United States.
The program features curriculum based on the study of how America’s
foundations and historical development have shaped and continue to inform U.S.
politics, economics, and society.
Community service activities are a key cultural component of the program
and provide participants with a first-hand experience of how volunteerism plays
a vital role in U.S. civil society. The
program will offer multiple opportunities for follow-on engagement through
alumni webinars, grant-funded follow-on projects, social media, and an alumni
workshop.
The University of Montana (UM)
in Missoula, Montana, will oversee and administer the three SUSIs for Secondary
Educators and will also conduct one Institute for teachers which will explore
U.S. studies through the lens of democracy and citizenship. The Institute for Training and Development

which will explore the ways in which individual rights and social obligations
