Using digital cameras in the classroom is a terrific way for students to document their progress through their work, especially in digital video production. I am a STEM educational leader and our students would have a lot of opportunities to work through projects and designs. The use of digital images is a powerful way to show their progress through the stages of their design as well as their future career preparation. It will also provide needy students with an opportunity to communicate using 21st Century skills. This year we are focusing on being Career and College Readiness. Students will partake in career development opportunities including resume and cover letter creation, public speaking, and mock interviews. Our students will also create socially useful apps and demo businesses. We are upgrading this years Career Day into a true STEM Fair. All of our students will be creating digital presentations of their projects. The digital cameras would be a great step to help them tell their stories. Our students often lack experiences that other students take for granted. Our students often need more support academically and emotionally. What they lack in experience they make up for in enthusiasm and interest. The students would be so excited with the opportunity to manage their own camera and documentation while working in collaborative groups. The use of digital images are also a valuable tool that would engage students and help them better communicate with classmates. The images would also be valuable to communicate to others in the school, as well as parents, the great things that are happening in our school.
