Digital Production in the Classroom

July 17- 21, Appalachian State University, Boone, NC

This weeklong class aimed at teachers, will provide participants with the conceptual and practical skills to create digital media in K-12 classrooms and will be offered for 3 hours of graduate credit. It will model and discuss how students at a variety of levels can produce media materials on their own. Emphasis will be on using technology as a means of expression and on developing activities that further the aims of student-centered, constructivist classrooms.

Instructor Jeff Goodman has worked with teachers to develop creative applications for computers and other technologies in the classroom at the elementary, middle and high school level. Course content will include: digital photography and scanning, image manipulation in Photoshop, creative approaches to Power Point, web page design and publication, video production/ digital video editing. The following Sunday afternoon at 1:00pm, AMLA members Barry Duncan, Kathleen Tyner, and David Considine will begin the weeklong class Media Literacy and Curriculum Development.
