Evenings with History, “Doing History: Research-Based Teaching & Learning”

Join Dr. John Kirk and his graduate students at the Historic Arkansas Museum to discover the process of doing history. Faculty and students will reflect on their HIST 7391 Seminar in Public History (Fall 2021) and award-winning project that started with a collection of raw archival materials and ended with the completion of a publishable research article. What can faculty and students learn from experiential hands-on research-based projects? How do they enhance the student experience? What challenges do they present? This roundtable addresses these questions and more.
