- TOPIC: HistoryLab: Public History Project with the USHMM The HistoryLab is a public history project in collaboration with the US Holocaust Memorial Museum. Graduate students participating in this seminar will curate a primary source collection for the museum's Experiencing History platform, a digital learning tool geared for college classrooms and used in K-12 education as well. During most of the semester, we will be working with remote access to USHMM's archives to locate, evaluate and narrate relevant primary sources. Between Feb 29-Mar 2, we will visit the museum in DC, meet with stakeholders and review on-site archival material (travel, accommodation and food expenses will be covered). Participants in this seminar will gain practical experience working in the public history and public education fields. Our meetings will also be used to critically engage with the field of public history, its importance and its challenges.
