Inquiry and Teaching to Prepare Students for College, Career, and Civic Life

TPS logoNCSS is partnering with the Library of Congress to develop digital resources for use in teacher candidate programs to demonstrate the effectiveness of teaching with primary sources and the College, Career, and Civic Life ("C3") Framework Inquiry Arc. The centerpiece of these resources will be five online methods publications. Released in 2023, two grant-funded methods texts, Using Inquiry to Prepare Students for College, Career, and Civic Life, one designed for K-6 elementary methods courses and the other for 6-12 secondary methods courses. Due for release in the 2023-2024 school year, a three-volume K-12 methods text, Teaching with Primary Sources to Prepare Students for College, Career, and Civic Life, co-branded with the Library of Congress.

The programs offered here present information from these upcoming texts, and demonstrate knowledge and skills for using TPS resources from the Library of Congress with the C3 Framework Inquiry Arc.
