We have a small "mini makerspace" at the moment, which mostly includes crafts. We are working with a local science museum to bring teleconferencing equipment to both our institutions so that students may work with experts on projects. I see this as a high-tech way to eventaully connect with all kinds of experts who can help us or educate us about a variety of topics, maybe including archives.<br /> <br />We are moving ahead with highlighting our archives through a 50th anniversary celebration. Our local historical society is teaming up with us on this. Our major kickoff project for this event is an oral history program, which launches in May. We will have current students interview alum and current teachers interview former teachers. Interviews will be recorded and placed with "The Voice Library" http://www.thevoicelibrary.net/ and in our school archives. I am encouraging interviewees to bring archival materials to launch discussion and hope that we may get donations at that time. Teens will then have an opportunity to see their interviews and accompanying donations placed in the school archives and may wish to help process them because of their connection.<br /><br />Our Learning Lab has evolved into something we call "The Pulse Program."
