EXHIBIT B Scope of Hourly Work 2011-2012 Interpretive Planning: In consultation with the City staff, ALVHS will continue to design an annual interpretive plan that highlights one or more of the sub themes as it relates to the main theme that will compare and contrast the three distinct time periods as appropriate. Solid interpretive planning is the key to success in all aspects of the visitor experience at the site. This is from the moment they set foot in the parking lot until the time they leave. This plan could include, based on needs, goals and objectives, expected experiential outcomes, recommendations for staffing, curricula, resources, docent training resources, additional interpretive needs such as signs, labels, brochures, way finding aids and other considerations for program implementation. This interpretation plan will be lived out through both active and passive forms. ALVHS will continue to implement, update and revise the Furnishing Plan based on research for the Alviso Adobe restoration in the three time periods that are represented by the entire site, including the historic structures. This will include further documentation of the lives of the people who lived there, the examination of original artifacts in other museum collections, and a study of nineteenth-century probate inventories from Alameda County. Additionally, secondary source research was devoted to specific aspects of the plan such as furniture, carpeting, ceramics, and room arrangements. ALVHS Staff time: Director: 260 hours @ $26.45/hr $6,877 Education Director: 104 hours @ $21.25/hr $2,210 Curator: 104 hours @ $21.25/hr $2,210 Total $11,297 Education Programs: ALVHS will continue to provide evaluation services for current school programs to strengthen the offerings that have already been produced. ALVHS will monitor programs so that they are developed and offered to meet the needs of teachers and state curriculum standards. These standards will be clearly outlined as a part of any promotion of these programs. ALVHS will develop, in conjunction with the City staff, additional programs that are needed to assist teachers in meeting their needs and that complement those programs that are offered at the Museum on Main. The types of materials that might be produced could be teacher resource materials and study guides both in printed form and available on a web site. We see this as a collaborative effort that will help create a more accurate and engaging experience for students. ALVHS will explore opportunities to expand beyond the traditional 3rd grade history-social sciences curriculum to assist in making the programs multidisciplinary whenever that is feasible and warranted. ALVHS will update educational materials as warranted.
