A major part of the Exhibition Program\u2019s work is developing multidisciplinary lesson plans, higher education modules, online activities, and onsite education programs that draw on the historical and contemporary collection of the Library.\u00a0 This summer, we invited local teachers and media specialists to come learn about our educational offerings and help us create new ones.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1183\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1183\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/classroom-feature-sm2.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1183\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/2013\/07\/30\/by-the-teachers-for-the-teachers\/classroom-feature-sm2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/classroom-feature-sm2.jpg?fit=461%2C360&ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"461,360\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":""}\" data-image-title=\"classroom-feature-sm2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/classroom-feature-sm2.jpg?fit=300%2C234&ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/classroom-feature-sm2.jpg?fit=461%2C360&ssl=1\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1183 \" title=\"Jiwon Kim, the organizer of the Teacher Institute, leads a workshop activity\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/classroom-feature-sm2.jpg?resize=300%2C234\" alt=\"Jiwon kim hands out papers to teachers attending the institute\" width=\"300\" height=\"234\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1183\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jiwon Kim, the organizer of the Teacher Institute, leads a workshop activity<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Jiwon Kim, the Exhibition Program\u2019s educator and lead exhibit specialist, developed the Teacher Institute, which provided presentations and tutorials that familiarize participants with our collections and online resources and facilitated collaborative work sessions for creating new lesson plans and activities related to our exhibitions.<\/p>\n<p>During group discussions, teachers considered how to incorporate National Library of Medicine resources like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nlm.nih.gov\/medlineplus\/\">MedlinePlus<\/a>, our consumer health information site, into their work during the school year and facilitate their colleagues doing the same. Lory Gardner, a humanities and language arts teacher at Montgomery Village Middle School, appreciated availability of many visual materials through\u00a0 <a title=\"NLM's Images from the History of Medicine\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nlm.nih.gov\/hmd\/ihm\/\">IHM<\/a>, which provides online access to over 70,000 images in the Library’s historical collections: \u201cI\u2019m glad to have some place to send my kids other than Wikipedia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The educators brought expertise in different grade levels and subject areas\u2014middle and high school, science, social studies, and humanities.\u00a0 The lesson plans and activities they created reflect the diversity of the group, and apparently not a moment too soon, as teachers are under increasing pressure to use a multidisciplinary approach in the classroom. For Sara Elwell, a library media specialist, and Carson Wise, a science teacher at McKinley Technology High School, the Institute was an opportunity to work with a colleague in another department. Carson Wise appreciated this. \u201cI got to collaborate with a coworker I never got to collaborate with before. Now, I have someone that I can present ideas with.\u201d Sara Elwell plans to introduce more teachers to our resources. \u201cI\u2019m excited to share because I conducted a survey of teacher needs at my school and your materials seem to answer those needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1182\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1182\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013-teacher-institute_feature_lg.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1182\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/2013\/07\/30\/by-the-teachers-for-the-teachers\/2013-teacher-institute_feature_lg\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013-teacher-institute_feature_lg.jpg?fit=791%2C314&ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"791,314\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":""}\" data-image-title=\"2013-Teacher-Institute_feature_lg\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"<p>Teacher Institute participants with Exhibition Program and NIH staff.
