    Local students created ePortfolios to explore the history of places around New York City like Peter Cooper Square, Cooper Union's Great Hall, Lincoln Center, and Dumbo. They used images and sources to connect historical sites to different types of histories and relate the past to the present. Creating ePortfolios allowed students to develop a sense of audience and validate their work as public historians by making choices about how to portray local history beyond textbooks.
