ELIZABETHTOWN — Renee Steele, a social studies teacher at Elizabethtown Middle School, has been selected to attend a C-SPAN Educators’ Conference.

She’s one of 32 from across the country selected for the middle school conference July 22-23 in Washington, D.C.

A news release says “the conference provides educators with the opportunity to explore C-SPAN Classroom’s free teaching resources, hear from guest speakers and learn how to search, clip and share videos from over 250,000 hours in C-SPAN’s Video Library. C-SPAN Classroom offers a variety of content on different topics, including public affairs, the branches of government, history and literature featured in short Current Events videos, Lesson Plans and Bell Ringers, On This Day in History events, Constitution Clips and Classroom Deliberations. Attendees discover how to incorporate these resources into their curriculums and create engaged learning experiences for students.”

Steele was chosen by a panel of C-SPAN representatives. Criteria included candidates’ “commitment to learning new educational resources, applying them in the classroom environment and sharing their professional development experiences in their academic communities.”
