History Day -- Leadership and Legacy

From HistoryLink.org

Visitors to HistoryLink.org know that we are proud sponsors of Washington History Day, which encourages students to become historians by developing skills in research, analysis, and presentation. This year's History Day topic is "Leadership and Legacy," and to help students choose an interesting subject for their research, we've created a blockbuster list of Washington leaders worthy of consideration. Also, teachers should know that the annual free History Day workshop at UW Libraries is set for Saturday, October 4. In the morning, several History Day teachers will present sessions on how students can make good use of UW Library resources and create exhibits, documentaries, performances, or websites. The workshop in the afternoon will provide hands-on activities in Special Collections. Attendance at this afternoon session will have to be limited, so register now.
