The course is offered by the Flow of History in collaboration with the Hood Museum of Art. It is a methods course especially for both U.S. and World History teachers (we will gear the presentations to the participants) in grades 5 - 12 to work with art to recenter the curriculum, elevating underrepresented cultures and voices, learn how to use art to prompt courageous conversations, and develop skills in interpreting art with students. Participants develop a final project developing or reworking a unit using art to elevate underrepresented voices or make connections to the present day.
This course will be delivered in a mixed format of in-person Zoom sessions, independent work, and individual mentoring through scheduled office hours.
