As students return to the classroom this fall, the Death Penalty Information Center is offering educators an updated version of its award-winning Educational Curriculum on the Death Penalty to assist teachers who wish to include this topic in their classrooms. DPIC’s balanced and dynamic online curriculum was designed in conjunction with the Michigan State Communications Technology Laboratory. This free classroom tool offers separate teacher and student sites, flexible lesson plans, teacher overviews, and objectives meeting national educational standards. To supplement the many resources available on these sites, DPIC also offers teacher training workshops and a Teacher Listserv for educators interested in teaching about the death penalty. Teachers who register for the Listserv receive a printable teacher’s guide, timely updates on significant death penalty news and events for classroom discussion, and access to death penalty experts. Click here to register for the Teacher Listserv. For more information about teacher trainings or to receive a brochure about DPIC’s Educational Curriculum on the Death Penalty, please contact Jennifer Adger, DPIC’s new Curriculum Coordinator.
