Comparative Analysis: Have students compare the experiences of the individuals in "Almost Home" with broader research and statistics related to formerly incarcerated individuals' access to education. They can explore topics like recidivism rates, educational attainment, and the impact of education on reducing criminal behavior. Students should draw connections between the documentary's narratives and the larger social context.

Interview Project: Task students with conducting interviews (real or hypothetical) with individuals who have experience working with formerly incarcerated students in community college settings. Students can ask questions about the challenges faced, support systems in place, and success stories. They should then compile their findings into a report or presentation.
