ASHP/CML’s premier teaching with technology program, The New Media Classroom (NMC), has been awarded a National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) grant. Entitled Learning to Look: Visual Evidence and the U.S. Past in the New Media Classroom, the program will train history and humanities faculty from 10 college and university campuses (NMC Regional Centers) in the growing scholarly arena of using visual evidence to teach about the past. The 2-year grant includes the addition of two new Centers from the network of Historically Black Colleges and Universities: Dillard University (Louisiana) and Spelman College (Georgia) and partnerships with historical and cultural institutions.
