How Did They Do That?
The Education for Liberation Network is excited to announce the launch of our How Did They Do That? project.
How did They Do That? is a collection of online “how-to” kits profiling innovative, inexpensive, replicable social justice education projects. Each profile features a step-by-step guide describing not just what the organization did, but how they did it. It’s a simple and effective way of sharing great ideas so that you can bring them to your own community. All the profiles are enriched with photos, videos, related documents and lots of helpful tips.
For the launch of this project the network has worked with TAG, a national coalition of teacher activist groups, to profile the projects of some of the member organizations: the New York Collective of Radical Educators, Teachers for Social Justice and Educators Network for Social Justice.
