Please excuse the cross-postings.  I am developing a workshop for our
middle and high school teachers in our local ISD about our collections
(art and archival) and how to use them in the classroom.  I would be
interested in hearing from others who have developed similar workshops.
What worked?  What didn't?  What did the teachers find most beneficial?
What do you wish you had covered in the workshop and didn't?  What did
you cover that proved unnecessary?  I'm especially interested in how the
information used in the workshop translated into actual use in the
museum and/or archives.  Thanks for your assistance with this project.

"Men make their own history, but they do not make it just as they
please; they do not make it under
circumstances chosen by themselves, but under circumstances directly
found, given, and transmitted
from the past.  The tradition of all the dead generations weighs like a
nightmare on the brain of
the living." Karl Marx, The Eighteenth Brumaire
