The Idaho Humanities Council will host a weeklong summer teacher institute, July 20–24, 2026, at Boise State University and the Wassmuth Center for Human Rights, bringing together up to 40 K–12 educators from across the state. This institute will explore the dynamic history, culture, and civic transformations of the 1970s—a decade defined by political upheaval, social movements, economic change, and groundbreaking cultural expression. Participants will examine key events and themes from the American experience here and abroad, including Watergate, the end of the Vietnam War, economic crises, environmental activism, Indigenous and civil rights movements, women’s and LGBTQ rights, and the era’s music, media, and pop culture, considering how these developments continue to shape society today. 

Through lectures, primary source analysis, discussion, and hands-on classroom strategies, teachers will deepen their understanding of the 1970s while gaining practical tools for teaching this complex decade. All participants will receive room, board, materials, and a travel stipend, with the option to earn continuing education credits. The institute seeks applicants from every region of Idaho and aims to balance teaching disciplines, grade levels, gender, and experience levels. By the end of the week, educators will leave with enhanced historical knowledge, classroom-ready resources, and a professional network to support humanities teaching that connects the past to today’s world.
