As the project develops, we hope that this website will present a form of database documentary, in which users can access interviews, videos photos and other cultural materials gathered from the community. Two classes participated during the Spring 2013 semester. Students in AMST 358 Cultural Documentation in Partnership with Communities were introduced to the ideas, techniques and ethical considerations that underpin qualitative research, particularly from a community-based, out-in-the-field perspective. The course focuses on cultural research and documentation within the communities that have been shaped for over a century by the Sparrows Point Steel Mill. Students have also been introduced to broader notions of community cohesion, senses of place and belonging, as well as the realities of post-industrial economic and social transition.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8545\/8609896787_5e8cc89a32.jpg\" alt=\"UB\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Students in MLL 495\/695 Intercultural Video Production focused on creating short digital stories based on community interviews.
