CSMP

California International Studies Project

Project leaders provide standards-based professional development in history and international studies to prepare students to live, work, and be informed, active citizens in a world where conditions, people, and distant events may have a critical impact on their own and others’ lives. We do this by:

• Developing teachers’ academic content knowledge and strengthening their instructional skills;
• Conducting site and statewide programs designed to bridge cultures, cultivate equity, and enhance access for California’s diverse student population; and
• Examining the complexity of historical and contemporary issues from a range of discipline perspectives.
