Digital history project Day 2 October 18 2011

Tomorrow we will be going for a visit at Weirdoughs Bakery.
Everyone is excited!!! We will be interviewing the baker and watch him as he bakes delicious treats.
I would like to ask you (the students) what questions you have to ask Perry Weir, the baker. What are you looking for during this visit? What do think you might see in the bakery? What will you learn, any ideas?

Digital history (or storytelling) project Day 1 October 18, 2011.

So far, our class has discussed the few people and businesses whose stories we would like to share.
We have talked about interviewing and open and closed questions. Before we go any further, I would like the class to reflect on the following:
1) What do you know about the various groups or businesses we want to tell about?
2) In which way are these groups or businesses different and in which way are they similar?
Let's blog!!!
