ORIAS World History Reading Group

East Bay

Discussing: Go, Went, Gone by Jenny Erpenbeck

Teachers in ORIAS World History Reading Groups read one book each month within a world history/global studies theme. Books are intended to deepen teacher knowledge, but may not be appropriate for classroom use. Participants meet monthly to eat and spend two hours in collegial conversation. It is a relaxing, intellectually rich atmosphere for both new and experienced teachers.

In-service teachers are eligible for book reimbursements or, in the case of regular attendees, may receive the books ahead of time from ORIAS. Meetings are open to in-service k-12 and community college faculty. Space is limited.
