Storytelling and Educational Websites

National Park Service

A&T worked with the National Park Service to create a series of web-based multimedia programs for Shenandoah National Park. Goals for this project included educating students on the park’s origins, founding, and the relocation of residents, while also providing an engaging user experience for audiences of all ages. Subsequent contracts produced curricula on the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), Herbert Hoover's 'Rapidan Camp' retreat, and the Lewis Mountain Campgrounds.

A&T developed educational curriculum and lesson plans which include interactive timelines, digital maps with clickable land tracts, a historical match game, interactive poster design tools, classroom exercises, and a series of engaging educational videos.

The Lewis Mountain interactive was awarded a gold American Advertising Federation "Addy" and a Webby's "People's Choice" award…one of the web industry’s highest honors.

A&T also created easy-to-edit programming, making it simple for NPS staff to update page content.  All elements were developed to meet applicable 'Section 508 compliance' and WCAG standards, which enable audiences of all abilities to experience the website’s educational materials.

A+T Integrated has years of experience building engaging interactive experiences for the National Park Service. We've told the story of abolitionists' Nathan and Polly Johnson's house in New Bedford, Massachusetts, the story of Rhode Island mill towns during America's budding industrial revolution, and explored the Sandy Hook Gateway National Recreation Area in New Jersey.
