Thanks for sharing this resource, Bridgette OConnor ! I wasn't aware of it. Looking forward to seeing when and where the conference will be held next year. I see there is a symposium online that started yesterday and continuing through Wednesday. Wish it didn't conflict with my teaching schedule!

Hey Meaghan Mihalic ! I know it's hard to attend anything during work hours, but the IBHA has posted the videos and the individual presentations are about 15 mins long. Here's the link:

Videos 5, 9, 10, & 11 deal directly with BH education

Thank you so much for linking this resource! Bridgette OConnor I was particularly interested in the one about integrating geography into Big History!

On another note, you made your way into my class in the form of author when we reviewed the Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin graphic biography. :)

I hope your kiddos enjoyed the graphic bio:) I need some help with BH course plans for geography, writing, and science topics. Do you think you would be interested in creating one for writing or science? I think I can get Rachel Hansen to do the geo one. If so, mind sending me an email?
