This course offers an opportunity for a service-learning project. Spending time at a local high school, either conducting a presentation on women s history, tutoring students in history for one hour per week, or offering high school teachers suggestions or lesson plans and materials covering women s history topics. Designing an oral history project conducting interviews and recording them on audio or videotape for the Regis University Archives. Interviews might address women s experiences during the Great Depression, World War II, the Civil Rights Movement, etc. This option might even turn into a larger documentary project, if students are motivated to do so.
Classes can agree on which project to pursue during the first meeting.
