National History Day Georgia

Welcome to NHD Georgia. Our goal is to help you do the very best work you can on your National History Day project. You should know that you are part of a global program with hundreds of thousands of students just like you will be conducting research and presenting their findings. The contest is always very exciting but remember this: no matter what level you compete at know that you are to be commended for your hard work and diligence.

 

Getting started - theme and topic exploration

Start your NHD journey by reviewing the theme sheet, theme book, introductory theme video, and rule book (see above). Then check out our Student Guide.  It is a complete how to!  The guide is composed of three parts.  You can either download the entire guide or select one of the sections found linked below.

Generative AI/LLMs

NHD knows that generative AI is already having an impact on education, business, as well as the information space.  Many are asking questions about the use of this technology in NHD projects.  We've developed guidance designed to help you navigate AI and your project.
