As a Social Studies/Film teacher, we have multiple resources to help students experience the past in a meaningful way and connect it to their lives. The high amount of reading, writing, and viewing we interact with as a class has highlighted the need for a better solution for projecting materials in class. A TV is back-lit and will make seeing materials easier from across the room. The fact that projectors routinely have expensive bulb replacements as well as poor lighting means a TV screen would make materials for class more visually accessible. Between reading passages, essays, discussion boards, documentaries, investigations, and research journals, our Social Studies group has a great need for a better solution for students in class to see our class materials. In Film Study, our behind-the-scenes, monologue pages, and film critiques have a high demand for viewing materials for class.
