Oral History
Workshop
October 10, 2009
The
Historical Society conducted its first Oral History Workshop! Students made
their way through five inches of snow with parents, grandparents and neighbors
to learn about the various aspects of oral history, such as: unique benefits,
project preparation, research, conducting interviews and repository preparation.
Students also had the opportunity prepare a question outline and conduct their
own oral history interview!
