U.S. teachers looking to expand and deepen their classroom coverage of the European Union can now download cutting-edge lesson plans created by teachers for teachers. Bring your European view into the 21st century with curriculum guides focused on environmental policy, immigration issues, economic integration, and contemporary society.

We welcome lesson plan submissions from K-12 teachers as well as community college lecturers. Submissions are especially encouraged from teachers in Canada and Australia where the European Commission also funds EU Centers of Excellence. Please follow the standardized template to the extent possible, making sure to include references to your state's educational standards where appropriate. Authors of lesson plans accepted to the site will receive a $100 stipend for permission to publish the lesson plan on the website. Lessons should be submitted via email to euce@unc.edu.


 

   
 

How to Use the EU Lesson Plans Database
To help teachers find the lesson plans most appropriate for their needs, we have compiled a comprehensive Excel database of lesson plans that is searchable by subject and grade level. In addition, we have begun listing National and State-level curriculum standards that each lesson plan fulfills, which provides teachers with the tools they need to make the greatest impact in the classroom.

You can sort information in the EU Lesson Plan database to quickly identify the curricular materials that match your interests. To do so, follow these steps:

  • Click on any cell in the column you wish to sort by, e.g. "Subject"
  • Click Data, then click Sort
  • Select "My list has...Header row" in the option box that emerges
  • Proceed to sort by whichever column(s) you prefer
  • Please note: To access any of the websites linked to in the spreadsheet:
    1 -Double click on the text containing the link that interests you.
    2 -Then hold down the Ctrl key and click the link.
