For full or half-day workshops, the Center's education staff, along with guest scholars, present grade-level-appropriate sessions about the Center's cutting-edge educational materials and programs. In addition, teachers receive classroom-ready resources and learn how to illuminate constitutional ideals and inspire active citizenship. Student Guides - Visitors to the main exhibition can pick up a copy of our Student Guide, which provides an engaging way for students to experience the main exhibition by exploring how the Constitution shapes and is shaped by major events in American history. Guides are available for elementary-, middle-, and high-school students. Student guides are also available for feature exhibitions. Constitution Hall Pass - In 2010, the Center launched a series of dynamic web-based video lessons that promote civic competencies - the knowledge, intellectual processes, and democratic dispositions required to be active and engaged citizens in public life. Designed for middle- and high-school students, the videos teach historic and civic lessons, and make repeated connections between the subject matter and students' everyday lives, showing them how both history and the Constitution are relevant to them. In addition to the video lessons, throughout the year students and teachers have the opportunity to chat live online with constitutional experts and members of the museum's education staff about the topics presented in each episode.
