Audio/Video Project

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My ideal classroom students are very shy and timid. I have to push them on a daily to motivate them to learn. I believe technology being implemented in the classroom will help my students express themselves more. Students will come out of their shells and really learn on a higher level.

My students have a high respect for their community and school.

I want all my students to succeed in life. I always share life lessons with my students to help them.

The students at my school come from all different ethnic groups. We are a very diverse school. My students respect each others cultures and differences. This is why love about my school we are a big family.

My Project

I am asking for two digital cameras, a set of headphones and an iPad. My students will use the digital cameras and the iPad to capture action shots for projects. My students have to create different commercials and movies in my class. The use of the digital cameras and the iPad will help them be able to create and edit their videos. The iPad that I have requested will let me be able to monitor the students progress. I will also be using the iPad to monitor the students comprehension on Clicker

My students will need technology to help them cope with understanding of audio/video.

Technology in my classroom help my students concentrate on the subject area in a more fun way.
