OVERVIEW

The PACE institute guides educators through a focused examination of a topic in law-related education. During the week-long session, presenters provide both content and strategies to apply the subject in the classroom. Participants are required to develop lesson plans based on the selected topic, to be added to the LRE resource library. The institute's goal is to educate participants in a topic in citizenship education, to expose them to creative methods in presenting the subject matter to their students, and to encourage them to develop and share their own strategies in teaching law-related education.

PACE is offered free of charge to educators. The institute is funded annually by a grant from the Oklahoma Bar Foundation and is administered by OBA/LRE.
