The Ashbrook Center at Ashland University offers summer institutes that assist teachers in deepening and broadening both their understanding and appreciation of American history. The focus of the institutes is the substantive study of American history. The discussions revolve around original historical documents and their use in the classroom.
K-12 classroom teachers from around the US, in American schools overseas, and in Department of Defense schools participate in the summer institutes. Each institute is a rigorous, six-day, graduate-level program that begins on a Sunday afternoon and concludes on a Friday afternoon.
Teachers may choose to receive two hours of master's degree credit from Ashland University. This credit may be applied to the Master of Arts in American History and Government offered by Ashland University, used for educator licensure purposes, or may be transferred to another institution.
