Learning the history of a place as recounted by members of a community helps us understand and act in the present. This course introduces students to community-based learning & research, with a focus on oral history. Students will learn from members of the Oberlin community and establish historical context and methodological familiarity through readings and visits to local organizations. Oral history methods will be applied through interviews in partnership with Oberlin Heritage Center’s “Oberlin Oral History Project.” Students will also conduct archival research and produce a digital humanities exhibit. Field Trips required.
