The Discovering Community Summer Institute offers participants basic hands-on experience learning the methods of community-based research, the process of making a documentary, and the skills of working with digital media—in a school setting.
Past participants have come from a broad spectrum of roles in the K-12 system, including classroom teachers, special educators, librarians, and administrators. This diversity makes group process a rich opportunity to explore ideas, probe models, and collaboratively visualize site-appropriate applications.
