I’ve got a lot of information coming out about summer institutes for 2010! There are a lot of good seminars, I would definitely encourage you to apply.
The application for the Colonial Williamsburg Teacher Institute has been posted. Visit http://www.history.org/history/teaching/tchsti_scholarship.cfm for more information. They have one week during the summer where they offer scholarships for teachers to attend. The link will take you to the scholarship info page. This is a wonderful institute, I would highly recommend it. I attended two years ago, and I’m still getting great information and ideas from Williamsburg.
The Goethe Institute will also hold their two week study tours to Germany next summer. Social Studies teachers in grades 1-12 are eligible to apply. The application is due in February, and can be found at http://www.goethe.de/ins/us/lp/prj/top/txl/enindex.htm.
And finally, the Institute of International Education and the Toyota International Teacher Program will have a two week seminar in Costa Rica in 2010. Information and the application can be found at http://www.toyota4education.com/pmwiki.php?n=Main.WelcomeToTheToyotaInternationalTeacherProgramWiki?from=Main.HomePage. The Institute of International Education was one of the partners for the trip to South Korea that I attended in 2008. I would also highly recommend them.
Please take a minute to glance over the information, they are great opportunities and if you decide to apply good luck!
