Last month Hoover hosted participants in a special course about the revolution for middle school, high school, and community college instructors.
The course is one of many professional development offerings for local teachers developed by Stanford Global Studiesand the Center to Support Excellence in Teaching (CSET), with partial funding from the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant. As part of the course, the participants received a private tour of The Crown Under the Hammer: Russia, Romanovs, Revolution exhibit at the Hoover Institution Library and Archive and the Cantor Art Museum, as well as a lecture about the revolution from Bertrand Patenaude, a Hoover research fellow and a lecturer in history and international relations at Stanford.
