Introductory Video
|
This is a program created, developed and sponsored by The Journey Through Hallowed Ground Partnership at the request of the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, (ACHP), in conjunction with Harpers Ferry National Historical Park and Harpers Ferry Middle School.
Based on their hands-on experiences in Harpers Ferry National Historical Park and analysis of primary source documents, approximately 70 Harpers Ferry Middle School kids served as writers, editors, photographers, choreographers, set designers, videographers, and even public relations representatives to produce and promote six mini-documentaries, depicting their understanding of the famous John Brown Raid in Harpers Ferry, which set-off fighting in the American Civil War.
Below you will see the results of this 21st century service-based learning project including: an introductory video that offers an overview of the program, the six student Vodcasts, a letter from the students to Malia and Sasha Obama, as well as press releases, advisories, FAQs, news clips, photos and more.
