During the summers, when we are not visiting our partner schools on a regular schedule, CUIP’s In-The-Schools group works on a variety of behind-the-scenes projects and also some CPS-teacher and CPS-student special programs on campus.
This summer we are very happy to have the help of two UChicago students who during the school year have been working with two CUIP partner schools in CPS through the Neighborhood Schools Program (NSP), and this summer will be working with CUIP under the auspices of NSP’s summer program.
Katie Schilling has worked at Alexandre Dumas Technology Academy during the previous school year, and this summer will work with the In-The-Schools group of CUIP on our infrastructure status, tech procedure documentation, and CPS classroom blogging.
Gracie Sonnabend has worked at John Fiske Elementary School during the previous school year, and this summer will work with staff of eCUIP The Digital Library and Chicago Web Docent on developing new modules and documenting metadata for the related media holdings.
