My daughter is two-and-a-half years old. I feel like the window for sharing stories is closing, and I want to create an audio archive to capture important family events and history so that my daughter can hear her grandparents tell stories well beyond their time here with us.

The attached lesson plan is designed to help 9th-10th grade students think more visually and reflect on their own strengths by developing storyboards based on an autobiographical superhero story. Students would use an app such as Storyboard That to visually build their stories. You can see the lesson plan outline here. https://www.jillbeale.com/data daily 0.75 2022-04-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/620ae2df91edf309cfc40512/b2f55cf8-243f-46ec-b873-8d6a62b3d86d/Time+Use.jpg Data - Data Collage Inspired by a curricular intervention that I am co-designing with a team of researchers and a 7th-grade teacher, I used personal data about “time use” to produce a collage that illustrates how my time is divided between work and motherhood. The curriculum includes: a theoretical framework, 7th-grade learning standards, a 10-lesson unit plan, resources, and assessments. The students who participate in this project will be analyzing data on time use using the American Time Use Survey and their own personal time use data, collected daily. They will be analyzing images and text and evaluating how data are used to communicate claims. The students will develop arguments about their own time use and collect images to “concretize” their data. Through iterating on a digital collage, students will explore illustrations of their data, producing an artifact that communicates a data-based argument.

I sourced images from the Adobe Stock Library (a part of the Adobe CC Express library of images) using search terms such as “laundry,” “food prep,” and “dishwashing.” I started pasting these images into a bar graph based on the ATUS data. It was interesting to see what images were the first to appear - mostly women in their 30’s doing housework with a smile. I found it humorous that housework was being portrayed in such a joyful way (e.g. women gleefully smelling their laundry). There was a range of ethnicities represented, but not age or sexual orientation. My experience as a mom, wife, and PhD student is very different from these images - I am usually doing laundry while my daughter sleeps at night, hoping to god that the sound of the washer door shutting doesn’t wake her up. The lighting is usually dark and I look exhausted — a pretty big contrast from these images. This process helped me to think about what kind of images I wanted to collect. I ended up using vintage advertisements and other images from the past for my final collage. Jane Fonda represents “self-care and exercise,” and an old IBM console represents “work.” I think that I subconsciously associate these images with the home and the office, with motherhood and work, because they come from my own cultural memory. https://www.jillbeale.com/social-media daily 0.75 2022-04-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/620ae2df91edf309cfc40512/3bfb28bc-9593-4e68-ac43-168da4c11764/Arc+-+Story+Example.jpg Social Media - Overview I have always loved the idea of the exquisite corpse. A collaborative drawing technique often used by surrealists in smoke-filled French cafés in the 1920s. This social media app borrows the idea to engage users in collaborative storytelling through photography and short video clips. The name is Arc, as in story arc. The goal would be for one person to start a story, similar to posting an Instagram story - but in a shared, communal space (not a personal account). Anyone could pick up the next beat, take the story in any direction, to any location, and even travel across time. The goal is to create an engaging and complete story arc. The stories could be as long or as short as needed. The person who starts the story gets to determine when it ends. The community determines how successful it is, and can cast votes for their favorites.

Artists and musicians are constantly producing sketches, photos, and recordings in order to build their skills and brainstorm ideas. These beautiful works linger in drawers and hard drives, unseen, and the recordings unheard. As unfinished or preliminary works, they are not sold or included in portfolios or albums. The Creative Cycle collects these "process pieces" from artists and musicians, sells them on our website, at exhibits, and on mixtapes, and uses 100% of the proceeds to supply underserved New York City and Los Angeles arts classrooms with the supplies they need. We bring hidden art out into the light, and art back into the lives of students. www.creativecycle.org https://www.jillbeale.com/work/afi-female-filmmakers-who-shaped-early-hollywood monthly 0.5 2026-01-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/620ae2df91edf309cfc40512/6d9576fb-a79e-46c9-9ccf-5be792c86392/1200px-Poster_by_Burton_Rice_for_the_film__Shoes_%2C_1916.jpeg https://www.jillbeale.com/work/film-projects monthly 0.5 2022-02-27 https://www.jillbeale.com/work/youthink-animation-workshop monthly 0.5 2022-08-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/620ae2df91edf309cfc40512/54b3db9a-5128-426a-aef2-d2d90bf10cbb/Screen+Shot+2022-08-02+at+3.51.27+PM.png Work -

Concrete Stories Concrete Stories Concrete Stories | BRIC Youth Media Festival is produced annually by local teens as part of the BRIC Youth Media Fellowship Program. The program was developed by Jill Beale in 2014 to guide students through the development and production of a youth media festival, from managing the call for entries to creating marketing materials, selecting the films, and promoting, coordinating, and hosting the screening. The festival showcases ten to twelve short films of various genres created by NYC youth filmmakers. The festival takes place every May at BRIC House in Brooklyn.
