My Students

We have a school full of future Spielbergs! Many teachers are assigning projects that allow students to "show what they know" through video, but who wants to watch a student (or teacher) shot video that shakes so much it makes you ill (Blair Witch Project, anyone?)???

Our school is located in a suburb about 20 miles north of Atlanta, Georgia and contains over 1100 students.

Our students are very creative and often think outside the box when it comes to school projects. They are increasing utilizing school technology to create meaningful projects.

My Project

My students need tripod adapters to shoot professional quality videos with our iPads. While we do have access to iPads at our school, many of the videos produced by our students have left something to be desired. By using tripod mounts, students will be able to draw more attention to their message than to the lack of quality of their video recording skills.

Students will be able to create impactful documentary films as well as videos that will showcase their knowledge of content and allow them to express their creativity.

Teachers can also utilize the tripods to create videos for their lessons.
