We are thrilled to reflect on the success of our recent teachers’ training workshop, where we had the privilege of hosting dedicated educators from the Jackson Public Schools. The workshop provided IMMC with a dynamic opportunity to highlight the Legacy of Timbuktu Wonders of the Written Word Exhibit, which is the cornerstone of IMMC’s Human Dignity Curriculum. Educating our youth of the rich heritage and literate culture of West Africa provides opportunities to introduce new strategies for teaching African and African American History to all students, and most importantly to African American Students.

The diverse range of educational resources available at IMMC includes the Human Dignity Curriculum, lesson plans, multimedia materials and guided tours. They are all designed to empower teachers with valuable resources and insights, enrich their ability to integrate museum experiences into the history and world civilization curriculum and inspire their students.

Throughout the training, participants had exclusive access to our museum’s collections, exhibitions, and educational spaces.

They engaged in hands-on activities, gallery explorations, and behind-the-scenes tours, deepening their understanding of the museum’s offerings and gaining valuable insights to share with their students.

We extend our sincerest appreciation to all the Jackson Public Schools and the teachers who attended the training and contributed to its success. Your passion for education and dedication to enriching the lives of your students is truly commendable.

To continue the momentum from the Teachers’ Training workshop, we encourage educators from across the country to contact us about how we can bring the Human Dignity Curriculum and other educational programs and special exhibitions to your school and community.
