Celebrating 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 Project
The vlogging cameras will allow students to engage in hands-on learning by documenting STEAM experiments, create visual projects, and explore the principles of photography and videography. This will not only enhance their technical skills, but also encourage creativity and critical thinking as they capture the world around them through a scientific lens. The cameras will serve as both a tool for learning and a means of fostering curiosity in science, technology, engineering, art, and math.
Our goals for the project are to enhance STEAM Learning; to integrate photography and videography into science experiments, engineering projects, and technology exploration, helping students visualize and better understand complex concepts.
We hope to inspire students to express their ideas and findings visually, fostering creativity and problem-solving skills. Our students show a passion for discovery and a strong desire to apply what they learn into real-world situations. With the right tools, they can transform their natural curiosity into meaningful projects that can inspire both their peers and the broader community.
