This model of digital media teaching/learning is open to be shared and contributed to by sister organizations and digital youth media educators/practitioners from urban and rural communities around the world....

ANYONE can contribute to our project! In particular people with skill sets and / or interests in any of the following areas can help us with our project: Media, filmmaking, education, community organizing, activism, technology, youth development and urban-rural coalition building.

What we're working on

There are several ways you can contribute to our open curriculum project.

Primary Goals for the Global Sprint:

  1. You can start by saying "hello" here and talking a little about yourself.

  2. Have you lived or worked in an urban and/or rural setting? Check out our urban and rural qualities chart. We'd love to get your evalutation and input: Google Docs or GitHub

  3. Contributors can share lesson plans, documents or other educational material you find useful in either our GOOGLE Contributor Resource Folder or our GITHUB Contributor Resource Folder

  4. Contributors can provide feedback on some of our annotated urban-rural lessons via Google Drive or our Github

  5. Are there any individuals or organizations that you feel we may want to learn more about? Potential collaborators? Let us know!

Long Term ways to get involved:

  1. Let us know if you're interested in using our Youth Powered Video Curriculum! What type of project do you have in mind?
  2. Start a conversation about doing a project together
  3. Help us think about how to raise money to continue working with rural communities and their youth
