Women have long played important, though often unrecognized roles in society, from the home to political activism to literature to the war front and beyond. March is Women’s History Month, with International Women’s Day observed on March 8. While women’s history should be integrated into the study of history throughout the year, the month of March offers the opportunity to give special attention to the accomplishments and contributions of women.
The selected Choices Program curriculum units and videos below can serve as a starting point for including more women’s voices in your classes. As always, please reach out if the Choices Program staff can be of assistance as you determine what materials would best suit your course needs.
