The students were able to create and implement a unit of instruction and service-learning project at Chappelle Elementary School in Ypsilanti, Michigan. Frankes is currently the recipient of a Michigan Campus Compact grant which will entail teaching fifth grade students to critique and challenge the popular media, and then create an academic service-learning project to educate younger students about the media.
