My middle school students are an extremely fun and bright group of learners. I find they work best when I give them options for expressing their learning. I have several artistic students who can draw and cartoon like professionals. Others write and express themselves with great feeling.
I would like to be able to offer my students more options for expressing their learning.
I currently have one video camera with a green screen. This is a popular option for many projects and is a bottleneck for productivity. If I had another camera set up and editing machine, I could double the opportunities for my "techie" and dramatic students to excel and find enjoyment in learning.
My Project
Many of my projects in class give the option to record video with green screen effects. Having only one camera and set up currently creates a bottleneck in the flow of students who can select this option. A second camera will double the number of students who can express their learning in their preferred medium.
This camera and green screen will allow students to put themselves in any situation or location needed to express their learning.
Students can be on the beaches of Normandy, the Sahara Desert, or in the midst of Machu Picchu. I have an older model of this camera so I know it holds up and performs well.
