H-HistoryDay List Serve
National History Day has teamed up with H-Net to provide a discussion list for educators participating in National History Day. H-HistoryDay is a forum for teachers, professional historians, librarians, archivists, museum staff, and other educators who participate in National History Day programs each year. The discussion list allows them to share methodological and thematic ideas, approaches, and problems. Both veteran History Day teachers and those participating in the program for the first time benefit from exchanging ideas; the list also provides an opportunity for public historians and librarians to communicate with teachers. To join, send an email to Bea Hardy at bb19@umail.umd.edu.
