three-year professional and curriculum development project on Harford County’s
civil rights history.
Harford
Community College proposes a three-year project to engage students in
humanities through primary research, oral history interviews, analysis of
existing oral histories, and the development of a digital exhibition and mobile
application on civil rights activities in Harford County. The project will
deepen students' understanding of literary works and local and national history
and will broaden community awareness of the role that Harford County played in the
civil rights movement. The project will take place in three phases. Phase one
will focus on faculty and staff training and development. During phase two,
faculty will integrate readings, assignments, and activities into seven
existing humanities courses and student activities, serving at least 450
students. Phase three will have faculty and students develop a digital
exhibition and mobile application that will share student work and further
community understanding of the civil rights movement in Harford County. |
