TitleCurriculum Materials: Islam in Southeast Asia
Body
From http://asiasociety.org/education/islam_in_seasia/essays-introduction.htm

This curricular guide, intended for use by teachers in high schools and of introductory college courses, is one of several Asia Society projects designed to foster the study of Islamic communities in Asia east of Iraq as an important and little-studied part of Asia in history and today.

The guide offers a thematic presentation of Islam in Southeast Asia. Southeast Asia specialists have written four background essays and several mini-essays and created a detailed timeline on the most important aspects of the region’s human geography, culture, and history, selected primary and secondary sources on the topics they address, and have provided illustrations and guides to additional reading. A group of teachers and curriculum experts has then devised sample lesson plans based upon the written materials and illustrations offered by the scholars. A cartographer created maps especially for the project, also based on suggestions made by Academic Advisors.
