Educator's Guide, examines a national documentary project about twelve diverse communities exploring the changing face of grassroots activism in America, as seen through the distinctive visions of some of the nation's most original photographers, and compelling interviews by leading folklorists and oral historians. The guide, distributed to K?12 teachers through museum venues and on the Indivisible website, enables teachers to integrate the exhibition's photographs, interviews, and themes into their own interdisciplinary curricula in conjunction with a visit to the museum gallery. It focuses on the documentary tradition and the power of images and personal narrative to reveal aspects of identity, community, and civic engagement. It includes an introduction and overview of each project site, and a how-to guide for documenting local communities through oral history and photographs. In the guide given out by museum venues, a selection of slides of exhibition photographs and an audio CD with interview excerpts accompany lessons for analyzing Indivisible images and interviews.

Delve into our Timeline of Bad Habits to discover how habits have shifted over time. Then join the debate on OpenLearn.Habits reveal a lot about society and how it´s ordered. In his classic work The Civilizing Process, Norbert Elias traced connections between the formation of the modern state and a long process of civilisation over 500 years of Western European history.This process involved the taming of some of our ancestors´ more colourful habits to allow people separated by custom and territory to enter into relationships with one another without the danger of causing grievous insult.
