Essential content information and hands on resources to teach about the “Stans,” the Himalayan Region, and Afghanistan

Welcome Central Asia for the Classroom Teacher

Under Construction
We are currently updating content, so please be patient with us.

Central Asia has traditionally been given scant attention in textbooks and materials for middle and high school classroom teachers. This website in its initial stages is being developed in hopes of providing essential content information for classroom teachers in the form of teaching “packages.” Although a select group of countries and/or regions of Central Asia were chosen, it is hoped that in the future, others will be added. Users are invited to give feedback for the first year and also contribute with lessons or resources they have found to be successful.

This website project was organized by Arlene Kowal, Teachers Center for Global Studies, Clark University, Worcester, MA
