Engaging with the Whitely Community
Subject
The aim of this immersive learning project (GEOG434, Spring 2022) was to engage with members of the Whitely Community in Muncie to collect information about is history and culture.
The classes were both student- and community-driven and took place off-campus at the Greater Mount Calvary Church in Muncie. The map projects were discussed with the community partners. Students had to go outside their comfort zone and think outside the box to collect information and transform their findings into visual narratives.
The final products (online maps, printed maps, and other visual material) will be delivered to the community for further editing and use.
