| Abstract | This overview of nationwide bicentennial efforts with particular relevance for elementary and secondary educators deals with three apsects of the commemoration. First discussed is the programming that national organizations, such as the Commission on the Bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution, Project '87, The American Bar Association (ABA), and the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS), are undertaking to commemorate the event. Next described are several national participatory school-based programs, including the "Young Scholars Bicentennial Project," sponsored by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH); "We the People," a mock trial program and student seminar sponsored by the ABA; a national writing competition for high school students on "The Constitution: How Does the Separation of Powers Make It Work?"; a national "History Day" on "Rights and Responsibilities in History"; and "The Jefferson Meeting on the Constitution: The Constitution in the Classroom." Lastly, examples are given of how schools can work with other educational groups to commemorate the Bicentennial; examples include the James Madison Fellowship Program and a National Bicentennial Competition. A list of 11 pertinent resources and addresses concludes the overview. (CC) |
