Course Description:<BR>
<BR>
The Chicago History Museum is one of the premiere public history<BR>
institutions in the United States and offers an ideal learning<BR>
environment for future public historians. In this course, students<BR>
will develop skills and knowledge applicable throughout their public<BR>
history careers. They will gain a firm conceptual understanding of how<BR>
the Chicago History Museum does public history, emphasizing its urban<BR>
context. Students will apply this knowledge to class discussions,<BR>
assignments, and actual museum projects. Ultimately, students will not<BR>
only learn what kind of work takes place in a history museum, but also<BR>
how to work in a history museum. Dr. Peter T. Alter, a museum curator and archivist,<BR>
will be the Instructor. Several Museum staff members and others will<BR>
also serve as guest presenters.<BR>
