More wonderful educational travel and funded opportunities!

4. The Dar Al Islam Teachers' Institute is held in a beautiful area of rural New Mexico. This year it will be July 21-Aug. 1.
It is well-done, education focused program which helps teachers teach about Islam more effectively. IT is FREE
except for transportation to Albuquerque. Housing, meals, materials,
programs, and transportation to and from the Albuquerque airport are all
provided. It's not a competitive application - more of a first-come,
first-served process, but priority is given, of course, to people who
apply early. We hear that they sometimes take preservice
teachers too. For more information, go to: http://daralislam.org/ programs/education/teachers- institutes.aspx
