Advising NHD Students

National History Day^® (NHD) places students at the center of their learning environment. These resources are designed to help teachers successfully advise students through the NHD process.

In addition, NHD has created a series of short-form videos, called HELP! I’m a New NHD Teacher!, NHD Topic Tips, and NHD Quick Tips to help teachers engage their students with specific skills. Review the full NHD contest project process and get started!
