This will be our TENTH Annual Washington International School Summer Institute for Teachers, and we could not be more excited!

How do we create powerful, enduring learning experiences for our students?
How do we explore complex topics in ways that engage all learners?
In what ways can we raise up student voices and foster civic agency?

These questions and more will be front and center at the tenth annual Washington International School Summer Institute for Teachers (WISSIT).

This intense–and fun!–week of professional learning introduces educators to effective strategies for cultivating deep thinking and understanding at all grade levels and across subject areas. We will offer concurrent but separate in-person and virtual tracks.

WISSIT is open to participants in the Washington, DC, region and beyond. While we will reserve a majority of spaces for local educators, we welcome those from around the country and world. Those attending the in-person WISSIT from outside the DC region will be responsible for arranging their own travel and accommodation. (We will provide some guidance on the registration page.)

Support for WISSIT participants continues throughout the following school year through the DC-Project Zero professional development network, which holds events both online and in person throughout the academic year.
