Inquiry Question: How can we connect students and teachers to one another during a
time when physical connectivity is limited?
Introduction
The title of this Professional Inquiry Project is “Humans of Crescent Heights” and it is modelled
after the popular social media collection of images and stories by Brandon Stanton called
“Humans of New York” (HONY). Humans of Crescent Heights acts as a general platform that
allows students and teachers to share positive stories through interviews, as well as a space to
share products such as artwork, poetry, videos, and written pieces. This project aims to enrich the
lives of people at Crescent Heights High School (CHHS) through a model that aligns with goals
and plans put forward by CHHS and the Calgary Board of Education (CBE). The project will
primarily be displayed through the CHHS’ official instagram account, @CrescentCowboys.
Inquiry Process
Interviews will be conducted by the student teachers (Sara Kohandel and Nicole Losier)
at first. As time goes on, the leadership students may also get involved in interviewing
potential features.
Submissions will also be accepted for posts on the page. Students, teachers, and
administrators may share images, photography, artwork, written pieces, and poetry that
represent their stories and selves throughout these times.
