[Genealib] Genealogy Services to Children

[Chris Tinney]

NOTATION:

http://www.co-nect.net/pdf_v2/case_study_newton.pdf
. . .
"Students in pre-Advanced Placement
history classes recently used their
laptops and tools like netTrekker
to research the history of different
  communities in the area and create
PowerPoint presentations. Then,
during their regular class period, they
met in the school library and presented
their work to the Newton County historical
society.  Following students’ presentations,
the historical society then shared their
knowledge of the communities and showed
students how to find additional resources
on the Internet, such as how to research
genealogy or how to research properties
in county or get a blueprint or the market
value of a house."

  Respectfully yours,

  I've experimented with a couple of school groups - middle-schoolers here usually to do something with "family history." But we have no set program.  I would love to here from anyone that does.  I think we have an untapped market.

Are any of you currently offering outreach to children and or young adults? 

What sort of programs have you designed and how have they been received?

Have any of you used PodCasting?
