10 AM -11 AM
Take a look at how history is written and reevaluated as new methods of study are introduced. Using the example of Jamestown in 1607, explore the myths and misconceptions of that era. Colonial Williamsburg's Electronic Field Trips are interactive history lessons, presented as live television and Internet events, and broadcast via satellite to schools around the nation. This dramatic and compelling learning experience enhances history and social studies curricula while supporting national and state Standards of Learning. The program takes place at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m., EST, in the Bruton Heights School Lane Auditorium, and is free and open to the public. Colonial Williamsburg's award-winning programs also are available nationally on many PBS stations.
