Join Us, Virtually!
"Broaden your perspective, share your passion.”
Due to COVID-19, and in consideration of our guests' health and safety, Florida Council for History Education (FLCHE) is hosting a virtual conference.
FLCHE is pleased to present our 5th annual conference via Zoom.
Please join us as we share our organization’s mission to promote history in education as a way to appreciate the progress and awareness of past and present events. Keeping with our vision, our conference will bring history resources that are accessible to our community, educators, and students to discover the value and impact of history education. Conference presentations must reflect the theme, Debate and Diplomacy, and may relate to Florida’s role in history. All sessions will focus on building content knowledge, promoting history education and disciplinary literacy, and the use of primary sources.
