>Hi all,
>
>Just wanted to pass along some information about Voice of Witness' 
>second annual teacher training workshop: "Amplifying Unheard Voices: 
>The Power of the Story." As there has been a lot of discussion of 
>bringing oral history into middle, high school, and community 
>college classrooms, I thought this might be of interest to many of you.
>
>Last year's workshop was an incredible success, bringing together 
>high school and community college teachers together as well as 
>community cultural workers, to dive into four days of training and 
>discussion highlighting the power of oral history and personal 
>narrative. We were joined by teachers from all over the U.S., and 
>would love to invite you to join us this year!
>
>Our 2012 workshop will take place in San Francisco, CA, from July 
>16th through 19th.
>
>During the workshop, participants will:
>
>- Conduct and share an oral history interview
>- Explore various media in relation to 'amplifying' oral history narratives
>- Hone transcribing and editing skills
>- Read and discuss narratives from the Voice of Witness book series
>- Work in small groups to create oral history lesson plans
>- Work with members of the Voice of Witness staff and local oral 
>history educators
