Cameras in the Classroom - Bruce A. Johnson, techLearning
I've recently been working on an instructional video program for teachers called "Teaching Through Technology." I've observed many tech-ed programs throughout the state of Wisconsin, and have been struck by the realization that the best of these programs aren't just about videography, or editing, or writing-they are truly multi-disciplinary. Creating alliances and collaborations throughout the school-with the music department, the drama department, the English department, the athletic department, and others-is a natural way to create a curriculum that will really teach your kids the things they need to not only produce excellent video content, but to be discerning media consumers as well. I believe this is a skill that is rare in our society today, and will only become more important in the years to come.
