Request for students to record oral histories
The Classroom of the Future Foundation seeks teachers who have students
that are learning to use video recording technology to conduct oral
histories. San Diego hosts a large number of Nobel laureates in
science, as well as a large number of inventors of aviation, wireless
communications and biotechnology concepts, among other things. Think of
hearing from people who worked in the early days of Ryan Aeronautical,
Qualcomm or Hybritech or IDEC Pharmaceuticals. As those people age, we
may lose access to their inspiration for younger generations. Capturing
their first-person stories may be one way to spark interest among
students for years to come.
If you have students that could conduct an audio/video recording of an oral history, please contact Rick Beach, at: Rick.Beach@amazingpossibilities.org
If you have contacts with inventors or innovators of significant ideas, then please contact Rick Beach at: Rick.Beach@amazingpossibilities.org
