2014 International Conference Panel Spotlight: Oral History and Mediation
The “Oral History and Mediation” panel will present three unique research projects that each study a different aspect of giving and recording testimony.
After learning about IWitness for the first time, social studies teacher Jane C. Moore was inspired to begin using it in her class this year and she even introduced the program to an enthusiastic group of teachers at a professional development seminar this summer.
Moore teaches sixth grade social studies at East Cobb Middle School in Marietta, Ga. Now in her 21st year of teaching, she said she loves when she finds “really interesting, practical, and relevant ways to teach, like using IWitness.”
