The Presidential Timeline Project

The Presidential Timeline project supports educators in developing students’ historical thinking skills and promoting civic engagement. The project consists of the Presidential Timeline website, Summer Teacher Institutes and webinars. The National Archives provides historical content and primary sources, and the University of Texas at Austin provides technical skills to create and maintain the website. Both institutions combine educational expertise to [present] the Summer Teacher Institutes and webinars. The project, previously called the Presidential Timeline, began in 2005 as a partnership between the National Archives and Records Administration and the Learning Technology Center in the College of Education at the University of Texas at Austin. The original website went live on Presidents’ Day, 2007. The project was funded by grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the US Department of Education, in coordination with the LBJ Foundation. The project continued in 2013 with funding from the National Archives. As of 2014, the Presidential Timeline project is being maintained by the Institute for Public School Initiatives at the University of Texas at Austin…”
