Nicole King (AMST) and Bill Shewbridge (MCS) were awarded a grant from the Hrabowski Innovation Fund for their project, Emerging Media Across the Curriculum. “Baltimore Stories” is a collaborative teaching innovation that brings several courses together to work with the Center for Emerging Media (CEM), a Baltimore non-profit, to produce audio oral histories focused on Baltimore residents and neighborhoods. Oral histories will be edited and produced for broadcast on WEAA during the Marc Steiner Show. Steiner and the CEM will work with students to develop interview and production skills as professors from American Studies (AMST), Media and Communication Studies (MCS), and Visual Arts (VART) guide students in place-based cultural and historical examinations of Baltimore neighborhoods.
