Say Cheese With a Digital Camera!

My students need a video recorder.

My Students

Students are limited in using 21st century skills in the classroom. They are our future.

I teach 6th grade ancient civilizations to 187 students who would love to utilize technology, especially a video camera.

Our middle school has 1,400 students and no money to purchase a video camera or other necessary equipment. There is a mixture of high achievers, special needs, and low performers in my classes.

My Project

The students would be able to create snap shots of history using the video camera. A lot of the assignments are projects that allow the students to demonstrate their knowledge by using technology. The video camera is a great tool to have the students express who they are as learners, in a creative manner.

A video camera would give additional incentives to students.

Learning occurs when students are excited about the topic. Allowing the students to use a video camera on different projects will bring higher level learning in an exciting way.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
