Barnard Teaches: Real Place + Digital Access is a technology and place-based learning initiative made possible by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. This major grant supports curricular innovation using new technologies through active faculty collaborations with curators, archivists, and collection managers at New York City institutions such as museums, libraries, and archives.
Concept
New courses with place-based learning and digital components:
-
Students learn at New York City institutions

Goals
- Create prototypes for innovative pedagogical models of teaching
- Utilize resources at NYC institutions
