Poetry in America for Middle and High School Teachers – Proposal
Poetry in America for Middle and High School Teachers is a Harvard Graduate School of Education–led initiative to produce online, for-credit professional development courses for K–12 teachers, drawing on Elisa New’s extensive video archive to strengthen classroom practice, earn Harvard credits, and meet English standards, with classroom-ready video content that can be used directly in instruction. The first course, Poetry of the City (Whitman), is in post-production, and a second course exploring either character development or the connections between poetry, science, and the environment is planned once funding is secured. Guided by a distinguished advisory board and collaborated with major partners, the project encompasses production, post-production, and distribution, leveraging PPE and edX experience to reach thousands of teachers worldwide. Output includes two full-credit courses by spring 2016, funded through HGSE or Filmmaker’s Collaborative, delivering scalable professional development and immediate classroom impact while expanding access to advanced study for educators.
