In an effort to infuse Asian studies in the social studies and literature curricula, the Stanford Program on International and Cross-Cultural Education (SPICE), in cooperation with the National Consortium for Teaching About Asia (NCTA), is offering a professional development opportunity at Stanford University.

This all day workshop will focus on teaching about Japan in the social studies classroom. Participants will hear from top Japan scholars, engage in Japan related curriculum, and network with other local teachers.  This is the second workshop in a four part series.

During the course of the day, participants will examine the factors that lead to WWII and Japan's role pre and post war.
