Digital Media
The Digital Media classroom is a place where students develop an appreciation for media, arts, and culture, and gain from its study new ways of seeing, thinking, speaking and making. It is a place where students are introduced to seminal makers, philosophies, and a range of creative techniques.
We strive to achieve the following goals:
For students to understand that they are valued contributors to the community.
To provide a safe and collaborative environment to promote skills such as speaking, listening, organizing, planning, producing and presenting.
That all students use their innate strengths and prior experiences in their work; think critically about their projects and develop strategies that work best for them to be a self-directed learner.
Why is it imperative that our students are self-directed learners?
Technology changes us. And technology is always changing, because we are always changing, growing, and learning. We believe that the key quality of a creative and capable citizen must be adaptability.
...and we like to have fun!
