This free educator training organized by Outside the Lens is part of a series of fall workshops for teachers with a focus on Arts Integration in K-12 schools. The September 25 session connects Social Science and Media Arts and covers the essential question: How can photography be used to capture and communicate the essence of daily life in a way that helps future generations understand our present? Participants will utilize photography to investigate historical documentation and to connect with their present-day experiences. Are you an educator seeking innovative ways to engage your students and integrate media arts into your classroom? Our hands-on, two-hour participatory workshops are designed to provide elementary educators with the tools and strategies you need to seamlessly integrate media arts into your core curriculum (English Language Arts, Math, Social Science and Math). Note: If you do not have cameras at your site, it is okay! Students can use any device with a camera such as a Chromebook, tablet, or phone to take pictures. Reserve your spot today!
