The class is made up of students from low-income areas around New York City such as Harlem, Washington Heights and Flatbush, Brooklyn. Many of them have little to no access to technology at home. What little exposure they have with technology is often to play games and/or simple communication. For a majority of our students, this class is the first time they are being taught any media literacy. The students have already demonstrated their motivation by filming on phone cameras and editing what they've recorded with iMovie. Given the opportunity and proper resources, these students will push to express themselves in an outstanding and creative manner.
