Inquiry: We observed at youth-led media as a source of inquiry at Temple Power where they were investigating topics through interviews, individual videos, and background research to create their final projects.

Community Engagement: We discussed adding social justice to the curriculum for Dre’s summer group – his major concerns are working to help boost student involvement and attendance.

Social Change: We learned how Dre is encouraging the youth in his program to do projects and focus on things they like but might not be comfortable talking about others with – i.e. anime.

Youth-Led Media and the YES Philly Experience

Thesis: Youth voice and empowerment is the key to student engagement.

Summary: I will connect the experience I had at YES Philly to concepts that we learned in the classroom in this course, as well as in YES 300.  I stressed the need for student voice and decision making within the classroom.  When students choose the direction of their discussion and inquiry, they are more inclined to retain the information discussed. I used my own experience, class texts, and a student interview to back up these claims.
