OHA Lunch and Learn: Oral History as a Teaching Tool (2025)

Original Program Date: July 29, 2025

This was a virtual roundtable conversation on teaching oral history. It contained practical advice from teachers who have experimented with bringing oral history into their classrooms. Discussed topics include having students analyze an existing oral history interview to creating opportunities for students to students conducting their own interviews. The goal was for participants to leave the webinar with a clearer sense of the logistical considerations, challenges, and opportunities that oral history-infused courses offer.
