For the past two years, teams of students in David Black's media design courses have traveled to sites in Utah to document the history, uses, mining, refining, and production of the chemical elements and industrial materials. They have interviewed subject experts, toured and videotaped sites, and the footage is being edited into a series of podcast episodes. In this presentation, David will show samples of the video episodes, discuss the project and its purposes, how his research at CHF this summer will fit in, and ask for feedback on approach, scope, audience, sponsorships, and project assessment strategies.
David Black is the Société de Chimie Industrielle (American Section) Fellow at CHF this summer. He has 20 years' experience teaching physical science, history, and media design technology courses at high schools and vocational colleges in California and Utah. He has also worked with NASA’s Explorer Schools program as an Educator Facilitator, leading educator workshops at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, CA.
