The main purpose of this blog is to help teachers to understand that they don't have to be technical wizards to have their students create videos.

What Equipment for schools?

Thanks, Nikos, for the amazingly quick and personal response! It would be very helpful to start a discussion about EQUIPMENT for use in schools (what works and what doesn't, what is absolutely needed and what is not to produce good quality films) and
I believe that this group will have much to offer in advice. Should I try to "add the Equipment group" and start the discussion? Yes, Alaska is a great place with rich culture; it is a great place to live and teach. You should try to make…
