This week, Don Lafreniere (Project Director) traveled to Ghent, Belgium to present at the Spatial Humanities Conference. He was able to introduce the Keweenaw Time Traveler to many European researchers, including the contributions of citizen historians and how it can be used both for storytelling and research in the humanities and social sciences. This was also a time to look forward to what’s coming next! We’re continuing to work with local schools to bring local history to life, both by creating curriculum for teachers to use and by putting on a Summer Youth Program (SYP) this summer focused around Time Traveler stories! Finally, in the upcoming months we plan to launch a mobile version of the Explore App and begin a webinar series for other communities to learn about (and replicate) our process!
