Students are using the teleprompters both for our live broadcasts and for creating short stories and feature stories. This has helped them move through the video creation process faster and to be able to use higher quality writing since they don't have to memorize it. This definitely helps the students that are less \"natural\" speakers and encourages the quieter students to use their voices. \r\n\r\nThe microphones have been the biggest upgrade as students can now easily record high quality audio straight to an ipad or phone. This helps motivate students to do more interviews and practice those communication skills and then ensures the message they are trying to convey gets effectively communicated! \r\n\r\nWhen we provide the right tools for the job, we remove barriers to authentic learning opportunities, and for that I am truly appreciative.","fullyFundedDate":1757112907269,"projectUrl":"project/help-middle-schoolers-learn-communicatio/9653281/","projectTitle":"Help Middle Schoolers Learn Communications Through live Video!","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Cavanaugh","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9917344_orig.jpg?crop=720,720,x311,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1739211586618","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9917344"},{"teacherId":9917344,"projectId":9100901,"letterContent":"I want to extend a big thankyou to your support of my Broadcast project. Through the donated materials my students began to explore the world of live streaming. We accomplished 3 live streams in the later half of the year! \r\nThrough the donated items and in combination with my contributions as the teacher I was able to turn my classroom into a small production studio, with 2 green screen sets, wireless mics, and control desk with video and audio switching stations, as well as a media computer for sourcing pre-recorded content and images. \r\nThe technology is really only there to serve the goal of pushing students to challenge themselves with real world, authentic outcomes....ie: when you live stream, there are no \"do overs\"! Students are learning the challenges and rewards that come from real dependence on their classmates in order to meet the group outcome. \r\nThe student body and parents/stakeholders see the results of their work through the live streams, giving the students immediate feedback. \r\n\r\nWhile we're running a rag-tag setup to get these students live streaming, the basics that came through DonorsChoose got it going and setup the motivation to continue and grow the program!
