PROGRAMS History Day Home | Guidelines [offsite] | State Contest 2010 History Day in GeorgiaNational History Day in Georgia is a history education program for students in grades 6-12, sponsored by the Georgia Humanities Council. In conjunction with a national theme, students research topics and present their findings in papers, performances, exhibits, or documentaries. Students can work individually, or in all categories except historical papers, they can collaborate in teams of 2-5 students. National History Day gets students out of the textbook, and into primary sources such as buildings, artifacts, records, interviews, or archaeological sites. Students can research any topic they would like, but they must also remember to look at available primary sources on their topic. Students present their research at a series of contests. There are eight regional contests in Georgia. Students who place first, second or third at regionals qualify for the state contest. Those who place first or second at state are eligible to participate at nationals. The 2009 national contest took place June 14-18th in Maryland. Click here to view our state contest winners list.
