Summary
The Borchert Map Library at the University of Minnesota started a summer Teacher Fellowship in 2023, bringing five teachers per summer together for a two-month deep dive into the resources of the library. Teachers have time to connect with other teachers, research in the Map Library, learn new technologies, connect with UMN faculty and staff, and find content for their classrooms. The session will showcase participating teachers, activities they’ve developed and logistics for other organizations to start their own fellowship program.
