SUMMARY:The Grand Alliance\, 1941-1945
DESCRIPTION:World War II brought about the formation of what Winston Churchill called the “Grand Alliance” of the United States\, the Soviet Union\, and Great Britain. But while this alliance proved remarkably effective in bringing about the defeat of the Axis Powers\, it was less obvious whether the partnership could last beyond the end of the war. In this seminar we will use a role-playing game from the Reacting to the Past series\, based on the Yalta Conference of February 1945. Participants will take on the roles of U.S.\, Soviet\, and British delegates\, working to reach agreement on a number of important questions regarding the nature of the postwar world. \n\nHistoric Site: National World War II Museum\nHotel: Hilton New Orleans/St. Charles Avenue\n\nGather with a small group of teachers from around the country for three days immersed in discussion and exploration of a single topic in American history. Weekend Seminars are a free opportunity for teachers hosted near an important historical site. Teachers will prepare ahead of time for seminars by reading selected historical documents in the provided course packet. Once the seminar begins\, the discussion leader guides a peer-to-peer\, text-based conversation among all participants. Meals\, materials\, single-occupancy rooms\, and historical site visits are 100% covered by Teaching American History. At the end of each course\, every teacher receives a letter of participation for fifteen contact hours of continuing education and a stipend of $600 to help defray travel costs.
