Local Summer Professional Learning Opportunities

 Vermont Folk Life Center:

• We're accepting registration for our Teaching with Primary Sources: Vermont Farming and Foodways (in-person in St. Albans, VT) - July 21 and 22, 2022. We are excited to offer this professional development course for free for up to 30 educators. It is also a funded opportunity for 10 educators, who will be provided an honorarium to review the resources of this pilot project, which will be available through the Library of Congress educators' platform. We would love to have representation from educators across the state. 
  
  
• We are also offering two courses, Documenting Everyday Life (in-person in Brattleboro, VT), July 6 and 7, and Community Driven Media Making (Online only), July 25 - Aug 4. We have revised our long-standing Summer Institute programming in condensed and hybrid formats to adapt to the new realities of educators. Participants will have the opportunity to learn and try out oral history techniques and interviewing skills in ways that are accessible, culturally relevant and fun.
