Cherokee Family
Histories:
A Cherokee High School Student Project
by Beverly Reavis
Cherokee High School
Cherokee, NC
This unit plan
introduces students to digital still cameras and video cameras, image
editing, and web page design. It is also designed to introduce
students to personal histories. Students will record personal
histories from elders in the community and preserve them in digital
form. As a culminating activity, students will invite the elders
and other family members to a multimedia presentation of the histories.
Each elder will be presented with a copy of the presentation on a
CD which the student will burn.

a photograph of the ramp leading up to the second floor of Cherokee
High School. This mural was painted by several CHS
art students during the 2000-2001 school year. The background
design was created by a local basketmaker.
