[Wayne Prescott]

*Doors to the World: East Asia *Summer Institute for Educators

Co-sponsored by the Five College Center for East Asian Studies and the Five
College Doors to the World Project

July 9-14, Hampshire College, Amherst, MA

Priority application deadline: April 3, 2017



This summer institute studies diversity and representation in global
children’s literature about and/or from China, Japan, and Korea.
Participants will consider the histories and cultures of these nations to
contextualize selected children’s books. They also will engage in dialogue
with children’s book authors and illustrators, and children’s literature,
culture, and pedagogy specialists to design multimodal learning experiences
offering opportunities for children to engage with the themes, words, and
images of the books. The institute will culminate with teacher-designed
mini-units to support classroom inquiry.



PreK-grade 3 teachers, librarians and literacy coaches nationwide may
apply. Grades 4-5 educators may be given consideration to the extent their
application addresses how they use picture books in their grade level
teaching. We welcome applications from educators who have previously
participated in National Consortium for Teaching about Asia (NCTA)
seminars, institutes, or other programs. Limited to 25 educators.
