The oral history resources will include videos that provide 鈥淧ortraits in Patriotism,鈥 a series of personal stories featuring diverse individuals who demonstrate civic-minded qualities, including first-person accounts from victims of other nations鈥 governing philosophies that differ from those of the United States.

The project will include printable resources, augmented reality activities and professional development workshops for K-12 teachers on how to use these resources in their classrooms. All materials will align with Florida鈥檚 civics education standards for K-12 schools.
