SUMMARY:Exploring Veterans' Stories Through Public History
URL:https://events.ucf.edu/event/4249978/exploring-veterans-stories-through-public-history/
DESCRIPTION:Join the UCF Veterans Legacy Program and UCF's Phi Alpha Theta History Honor Society for an interactive Veterans History Month event highlighting innovative ways UCF students are preserving and sharing veterans' stories.\n\nHeld in the UCF Library Digital Exploration Center (DEC), this hands-on experience will showcase digital and physical public history projects developed through the Veterans Legacy Program, a grant-funded partnership with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Explore interactive maps of Cape Canaveral and Puerto Rico National Cemeteries, listen to oral histories recorded with veterans and their family members, and engage with educational tools created by UCF students.\n\nGuests will also have the opportunity to experience analog projects, including replica headstones produced in UCF's engineering labs that allow K-12 students to explore cemetery history through classroom-based learning activities.\n\nMeet students from the Department of History and the Texts and Technology doctoral program, learn about their research and discover how public history can connect communities with the stories and legacies of those who served.\n\nHosted by the UCF Veterans Legacy Program, UCF Libraries, the Department of History and Phi Alpha Theta.
