See Stories was founded as a nonprofit in 2019 by a dedicated and diverse Board on the premise that representation matters, that Alaskan youth are uniquely equipped to share authentic local histories through film making and podcasting, and that empowering youth with media literacy is a vital skill in today’s world.
We have worked with hundreds of educators from dozens of communities across the state to provide professional development training in filmmaking, media literacy, primary source research and analysis, and learning untold stories of Alaska's true history.
In addition to the courses offered here on Teachable, we also have many resources available on our website. Check out our:
-
TeacherTools - our online community with discussion boards, and FREE curriculum resources
-
Teacher and student-produced films that tell authentic community-based stories
- Upcoming online and in-person workshops
Thank you for joining us!
"I'm taking away great respect for place-based learning, and respect for the role of culture in education, and deeper appreciation of my students' heritage”.

“What stands out most about the materials and activities in this course is how they brought depth and nuance to topics I thought I understood. The primary sources, for instance, revealed brand new perspectives to me, as well as the layers of bias and missing voices that often shape our understanding of history.”
