YESTERDAY-TODAY-TOMORROW: BUILDING THE FUTURE OF SOCIAL STUDIES Welcome to the 98th Annual Conference of the National Council for the Social Studies in the “Windy City” of Chicago! It is an innovative city, full of history and rich ethnic diversity, and was recently ranked the “best city for having it all” through Time Out’s extensive “City Life Index” as well as the second-best place to eat in the world! Since 2003 when our annual conference was last held in Chicago, much has changed in the realm of social studies education. It is this ever-changing landscape that makes the NCSS Annual Conference such an important professional development and networking opportunity for social studies educators and administrators across the nation and around the globe. Throughout the 3 ½ days of the conference, you will have over 500 content-rich sessions covering all subjects and grade levels embodying the conference theme: YesterdayToday-Tomorrow: Building the Future of Social Studies. Within these numbers will be a multitude of sessions, workshops, clinics, and tours that will offer opportunities for you to integrate various social studies disciplines with our colleagues from other subject areas and engage your students in real-life learning experiences. The popular conference feature, the “unconference”, will continue Friday afternoon from 4–7pm at the Swissotel. Come lead or participate in discussions of social studies topics of interest that might not be covered elsewhere. With so many choices, your greatest challenge may be in selecting your schedule from the numerous available options! This year we are offering an amazing lineup of speakers who will not only challenge you but will take you through a wide range of emotions as they journey you through their life’s history. Additionally, we have amassed several panels that will address the Holocaust, civic education, media literacy and introduce you to three dynamic NatGeo Explorers inspiring us to help them change the world! Of course, you will want to take time to visit the Exhibit Hall—always one of the highlights of the conference. This is THE place to network with vendors and socialize with friends while looking at the latest textbooks, supplemental materials, technology and media. This year we will have two times dedicated as “Exhibits Only” times: Friday from 5–6pm and Saturday from 8–9am. Come visit the exhibitors during these two “session free” times. No sessions. No meetings—just time to roam the Exhibit Hall to your heart’s content. Another new feature at this conference is a special strand of Friday conference sessions focusing on the new Illinois Social Studies Standards. Specifically designed for Illinois teachers, but open to all conference attendees, these sessions will highlight how deliberation, student voice, and informed action can be used to connect classroom actions across cultural, geographic, and socioeconomic differences to promote culturally responsive teaching that prepares students for college, career and civic life. I am grateful to the many people who have given countless hours in a “labor of love” for this conference to be a success: • • • • • • •
NCSS Director of Meetings David Bailor Conference Co-Chair Shawn Healy Local Arrangements Chairs Mary Ellen Daneels, Heather Van Benthuysen and Jessica Marshall Steve Armstrong and Mike Koren for their tireless work on the proposal system the dedicated NCSS Staff and Board of Directors all those who started this ball rolling by attending conference planning meetings the many who accepted the baton in this conference relay and “brought it home” by selecting the conference proposals that are listed in this program.

Yesterday-Today-Tomorrow: Building the Future of Social Studies
LOCAL ARRANGEMENTS WELCOME Welcome to Chicago, host of the 98th Annual Conference for the National Council for the Social Studies. Aptly called The City of the Broad Shoulders by Carl Sandburg, we think Chicago is the perfect location to “carry” this year’s theme, “Yesterday-TodayTomorrow: Building the Future of Social Studies.” This year, Illinois is celebrating its bicentennial. We hope you will take the opportunity to learn more about the rich history of the “Land of Lincoln” in the many clinic and conference offerings. Delve into the rich cultural contributions of artists who trace their roots to Chicago—like Miles Davis and Gwendolyn Brooks. Explore the path of political leaders like Abraham Lincoln and Barack Obama. Be inspired to stand for social justice by the examples of Jane Addams, the first American Woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize, and Judge Anne Burke, one of the founders of the Special Olympics. Use your evenings to step into the present and explore our city. Take advantage of our world class museums, many within walking distance of the conference. Chicago is a food lover’s paradise with offerings to fit anyone’s palate and price point. If you love sports, you will love Chi-Town, home to both professional and collegiate offerings. Our theater scene can take you to the “room where it happens” with a trip to the award winning Hamilton, or cater to your musical taste with an evening enjoying the Blues. We hope you will join us on November 30th for a special strand of programming as we look to the future of social studies. (See pages 14–17.) Our theme, Inquiry as Engagement: Connecting Across Difference, will emphasize the importance of how student inquiry can promote collaboration, communication and critical thinking to address vital issues facing this diverse state and nation. Workshop sessions will be designed to highlight how deliberation, student voice and informed action can be leveraged to connect classrooms across cultural, geographic, and socio-economic differences to promote culturally responsive teaching that prepare students for college, career and civic life. The Robert R. McCormick Foundation, the Chicago Public Schools Department of Social Science and Civic Engagement, and the Illinois Council for the Social Studies welcome you to Chicago. Please seek out our conference volunteers if you have any questions. —Mary Ellen Daneels and Heather Van Benthuysen, Local Arrangements Co-Chairs

Award for Global Understanding Given in Honor of James M. Becker Saturday, December 1 10:15 – 11:15am Wrigley, Concourse Level, West Tower Gustova Carrera Shore Country Day School, Beverly, MA
Teaching Global Citizenship a Case Study: Civil Rights, Cold War, and the African Anti-Colonial Struggle Civil rights leaders understood their struggle as part of a larger struggle for liberation, and proindependence leaders in Africa understood America and its foreign policy, at least in part, through the lens of segregation and the Civil Rights struggle; while America’s Soviet adversaries exploited those perceptions to their advantage, a community of Civil Rights and anti-colonial advocates bound by ideas and ideals emerged across the Atlantic. Presenter: Gustova Carrera, Shore Country Day School, Beverly, MA
Chair: Joseph David, J.I. Watson Elementary School, Iowa, LA
Come visit us at Booth #508 to learn how our Action Civics curriculum and teacher training can support you in empowering your students to become lifelong civic leaders and change-makers in their community!

Anthony Ray Hinton Surviving American Injustice: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row Anthony Ray Hinton spent nearly thirty years on Death Row in Alabama for murders that he did not commit.

With the tireless help of the founder and Executive Director of the Equal Justice Initiative, Bryan Stevenson, Hinton finally won his release in 2015. Hinton will speak about the circumstances of his wrongful incarceration, the racial biases that influenced the investigation and
conviction, his unrelenting determination to survive, the power of faith and forgiveness, and the urgent need for prison reform in America. Anthony Ray Hinton is the author of The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row. His appearance is generously sponsored by Macmillan.

Grand Ballroom, East Tower
Alex Wagner
Moved by her own deep hunger to belong—to have an identity that matters and a tribe of her own—Alex Wagner, author and co-host of Showtime’s “The Circus,” set off on a quest to find the truth about her family history. It became the memoir Futureface, and it took her from Burma to Luxembourg, from ruined colonial capitals to high-tech genetic labs. As she closed in on the mystery of her own ancestry, she began to grapple with a deeper question: does it even matter? Alex Wagner is co-host of Showtime’s The Circus and a contributor to CBS News and The Atlantic. Her appearance is generously sponsored by Penguin Random House.

Khizr Khan
Putting “Place” at the Heart of Your Geo-Inquiry [REC]
One minute after Gold Star parent Khizr Khan concluded his speech at the 2016 Democratic Convention, Google searches for “register to vote” spiked, and pocket Constitutions soared to the top of bestseller lists. Mr. Khan continues to give talks around the country celebrating equal protection and equal dignity for all Americans, and standing up to words and deeds that violate the ideals patriots hold dear. His moving memoir, An American Family, tells the inspiring story of one family’s pursuit of the American dream and why—especially in these tumultuous times—we must not be afraid to step forward for what we believe in when it matters most. Khizr Khan reminds us what being a nation of immigrants really means, and what it is to live— rather than simply to pay lip service to—our ideals. Khizr Khan is the author of An American Family: A Memoir of Hope and Sacrifice and This Is Our Constitution. His appearance is generously sponsored by Penguin Random House. COMMUNITY SCHOLAR SESSION

Grand Ballroom, East Tower Jose Antonio Vargas An American by choice, Jose Antonio Vargas came to the U.S. from the Philippines when he was twelve. He’s lived here for 25 years, but his status as undocumented has meant he's spent those years unmoored and anxious. He knows no other home but this one, yet can’t feel fully at home in a place where he has to lie to get by. In his new memoir, Dear America: Notes from an Undocumented Citizen, he describes the reality of living as an “illegal” and makes the case that people should not be defined by their legal status, but by who they are. Jose Antonio Vargas is founder and CEO of Define American.
