Students will engage in storytelling circles with peers and community elders to uncover personal narratives and deepen their understanding of generational perspectives, laying the foundation for meaningful interviews.

Students will identify the project's core goals and personal significance by articulating their own understanding of how intergenerational stories weave together past wisdom with present experiences, and collaboratively draft a mission statement reflecting the collective impact they aim to achieve through their interviews and digital storytelling.

Students will brainstorm and explore diverse storytelling approaches with peers and community partners, envisioning creative ways to integrate intergenerational insights into multimedia presentations, fulfilling the essential questions and building their narrative strengths.

Students will synthesize their interview content and digital story ideas into initial outlines and sketches, integrating core questions and multimedia elements to form the framework of their final presentations.

Students will test parts of their digital multimedia presentations by sharing selected audio clips and narrative elements with peers and community historians to gather insights on engagement and impact, refining their ability to connect past and present experiences meaningfully.

Students will engage in structured critique sessions where they present digital storytelling drafts and interview findings to peers and community historians for constructive feedback, refining their multimedia presentations for the upcoming showcase.

Students will reflect on the digital multimedia presentations and discussions, noticing how intergenerational insights have influenced their understanding of community and identifying actions to apply this wisdom to future community contributions.
