My students need technology to be able to utilize their smartphones for photography class, as well as a DSLR for learning traditional photography techniques for our STEAM class.
Digital Photo class at my high school contains three sections and over 60 students. The students are passionate and curious about learning how to use their smartphones to take pictures, as well as how to use DSLR. My goal is to eventually lead a hybrid photography class, where students learn to maximize their smartphone as well as traditional DSLR cameras.
Many students are interested in pursuing a career in photography.
I hope that by purchasing this equipment students will be better prepared to enter a college program.
My Project
My goal is to teach students photography using their smartphones and DSLR cameras. I hope to bring our school's photography program into the 21st century by teaching students to use what they have (smartphones) as well as professional grade equipment (DSLR). I hope to create a STEAM based class that integrates technology and fine art.
Students will use attachable and changeable smartphone lenses to maximize their phone's camera capabilities.
Students will also use smartphone tripod adapters to be able to take long exposure/slow shutter speed shots, as well as double exposure shots. Finally, I am hoping to purchase another DSLR camera to add to our class so students can learn to shoot manually and learn how a camera works.
