Professional Development Programs
with Polish and Pizzazz!

If you are a K-12 educator looking for professional development with a uniquely personal touch that offers an innovative learning focus... we have just what you need!

Funded by a grant from the Library of Congress (the Library), the Teaching with Primary Sources (TPS) Program at Governors State University (GSU) provides free professional development programs.

Your expertise is our passion!

We know how important it is for you to excel as an educator. We understand that you want to bring something fresh and new to your students using exciting and innovative tools.

TPS-GSU Chicago Jan2013 Trainers

At GSU, our TPS Trainers are professional educators, like you... with exceptional expertise to teach YOU how to bring more polish and pizzazz for your students to excel in their capacity to learn because fo your increased expertise through our courses and workshops.

We assist educators in bringing to life in their classrooms the rich reservoir of primary sources from the library with innovative media and technology, while simultaneously developing lesson plans focused on achieving Common Core State Standards.

Why Use Primary Sources?

To Bring LIFE Into Your Classroom!

Imagine the enlivened learning experience you can create...

Reading the actual letter a soldier wrote home after he survived the Battle of Gettysburg VS. reading the text book account of it
Listening to Depression Era recordings performed by the original musicians VS. hearing a lecture describing the music
Experiencing a historical documentary prepared using modern day mobile devices to allow students exciting digital storytelling with access to original artifacts of history VS. watching a slide show or viewing photos of those artifacts in their textbooks.
