The Humanities Workshop\u2014a consortium of public, private, and charter secondary school communities\u2014believes in the critical importance of the humanities in addressing urgent social issues. The humanities offers our students dwelltime to understand historical context, engage in perspective taking, hone critical thinking, and generate narrative. \u00a0We believe a humanistic approach to social issues develops empathy in our students, inspiring them to engage deeply in the world around them, now and in the future, with their whole selves.<\/p>\n

By collaborating with others, our teachers have the opportunity to experience new perspectives from other fields in the humanities, build rewarding relationships with their colleagues in a new context, and deepen their practice with feedback from their peers.<\/p>\n Our consortium teachers come together to decide the theme for the Workshop\u2019s cycle. The theme sets the tone for our work and requires our students to interact with the most challenging issues that now face our society and local communities.<\/p>\n Our consortium teachers integrate the theme for the cycle into their curriculum for at least one unit of the academic year. By focusing on collaboration, iteration, and disciplinary practices, our teachers strive to create authentic learning experiences for all of the students in the consortium.<\/p>\n Each Workshop cycle culminates with a curated exhibition. The exhibition creates a dialogue between the work of our students and the community in which they live. We see this experience as the first step on the path towards meaningful civic engagement.<\/p>\n \n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.1″ background_color=”#fbae2f”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.1″ custom_padding=”0px||20px||false|false”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.1″][et_pb_cta button_url=”https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop” button_text=”Contact Us” admin_label=”Contact Us” _builder_version=”4.1″ use_background_color=”off”][\/et_pb_cta][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Bottom Image” _builder_version=”4.1″ background_image=”https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/workshop-image.jpg” parallax=”on” min_height=”511px” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false”][et_pb_row admin_label=”Spacer Row” _builder_version=”4.1″ min_height=”250px”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.1″][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.1″ custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.1″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Bottom image quote” _builder_version=”4.1″ text_font=”|800|||||||” text_text_color=”#ffffff” text_font_size=”50px” header_font=”|800|||||||” header_text_align=”center” header_text_color=”#ffffff” header_font_size=”75px” background_layout=”dark” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||40px||false|false” text_text_shadow_style=”preset3″ header_text_shadow_style=”preset3″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Main Image” _builder_version=”4.1″ background_image=”https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Humanities-Workshop2.jpg” parallax=”on” min_height=”511px” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false”][et_pb_row admin_label=”Spacer Row” _builder_version=”4.1″ min_height=”250px”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.1″][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.1″ custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||30px||false|false”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.1″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Main image text” _builder_version=”4.1″ text_font=”|800|||||||” text_text_color=”#ffffff” text_font_size=”50px” header_font=”|800|||||||” header_text_align=”center” header_text_color=”#ffffff” header_font_size=”75px” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||30px||false|false” text_text_shadow_style=”preset3″ header_text_shadow_style=”preset3″] Inspiring Social Change Through the Humanities [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.1″][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.1″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.1″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Philosophy” _builder_version=”4.1″] Philosophy The Humanities Workshop\u2014a consortium of […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/7"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7"}],"version-history":[{"count":66,"href":"https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/7\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":837,"href":"https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/7\/revisions\/837"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.miltonacademy.info\/humanitiesworkshop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}02.<\/strong><\/h1>\n
