  • History Revisited: National Women's History Week: A Multi-Cultural Infusion Model. MacGregor, Molly Murphy And Others Annotated Bibliographies Cultural Awareness Elementary Secondary Education Females History Instruction Inservice Education Instructional Materials Interdisciplinary Approach Lesson Plans Models Multicultural Education Resource Materials Textbook Bias United States History Units of Study Womens History Womens Studies Demonstrating the need for reintegrating women from U.S. history into the curriculum and the ease with which National Women's History Week observances can fill this need, this inservice workshop package provides a facilitator's guide and accompanying audiovisual materials for two different audiences--one for school administratiors (1 hour); another for curriculum designers, library and media personnel, and classroom teachers at the elementary and secondary level, and another for curriculum designers, library and media personnel, and classroom teachers at the elementary and secondary level (2 1/2 hours). Focusing on three critical time periods in U.S. history--1776, 1849, and 1920--this multicultural infusion model (1) demonstrates approaches for focusing on women's history in various subject areas, (2) provides guidance for introducing the multicultural history of women in the United States, (3) illustrates possibilities for curriculum expansion, (4) increases awareness of the many and varied role models available from the past, and (5) introduces resources available for exploring women's history in the United States. Each participant package contains: an informal teacher's survey; an informal administrator's survey; color-coded lesson plans, chronologies, and annotated bibliographies for elementary and secondary students; an oral history questionnaire; a textbook checklist for gender bias; activity ideas for National Women's History Week; and Community Resource Women recruitment materials. Appended is a transcription of the accompanying tape cassette. (LH)
