Engaging students in history outside the classroom and beyond the textbook can be a challenge. Whether you are a first-year teacher or a longtime educator, the Indiana Historical Society’s educational programs, tours, and resources can help.

The IHS is committed to providing effective educational experiences for educators and students with Indiana History Center programs and by providing useful resource materials, curricula, and programs for classrooms across the state. IHS student educational programs conform to Indiana academic standards.

In addition, the IHS sponsors several professional development opportunities and extracurricular activities throughout the year. Our goal is to help educators stay abreast of current teaching methods with flexible lesson plans and classroom enrichment ideas.
