I would love to be able to see what their project planning documents looked like to get a better sense of the scope of the work! I am a visual art teacher at a regional high school and am looking for ways to delve deeper and connect students to our communities.

Thank you for your comment. You might be able to get in contact with the teachers through Expeditionary Learning (http://elschools.org/).

I also highly recommend going to my friend Jeff Robin’s website (jeffrobin.com). He does amazing work.

The following video shows Jeff and a multimedia/bio teacher working together on a community project.
