THE ORAL HISTORY COFFEE HOUSE
Unlike
most secondary school projects that are often developed for an audience of one --the
teacher-- and are complete after receiving a grade, the rich collection oral
histories generated by students each year are publicly shared with the larger
community at an the annual Oral History Coffee House. Members of the community
are invited to listen to student readings of excerpted portions of interviews
and view museum-like exhibitions of student projects, that, over the years have
been transformed into poster board exhibits, one-act plays, and interpretive dance
and PowerPoint presentations.
