Media Production For The Classroom, Maria Luskay

Cornerstone 3 Reports : Interdisciplinary Informatics

The major goal of this course is to familiarize students with current video production techniques and equipment. By using a hands-on and laboratory/ lecture approach, we will be able to produce a wide variety of projects using both studio and field procedures. Some of the areas we will cover include: treatment/scripting, pre-production, directing, lighting, audio, continuity, camera operations and post production.

Students will also apply current media streaming techniques to video and upload final projects to YouTube and Google Video.

Thinkfinity.Org Videos, Robert Del Greco, Graduate Assistant

Cornerstone 1 Reports : Expansion and Enhancements of the Thinkfinity Platform

Follow-up reports on the integration of videos in the Thinkfinity projects.

Original Goals: • To establish a rapport with a school in which Thinkfinity.org videos could be produced. • To create a reproducible format that could be used to create future Thinkfinity.org videos. • To create a video series (no less than 5 videos) of interactive whiteboard enhanced lessons based on Thinkfinity.org lesson plans that demonstrate how teachers can utilize both resources.
