Position:

Needs:
Flip cameras, tripods, snow microphone, rechargable batteries
My Philosophy:
My philosophy is that these skills that I can teach with this equipment are the skills that the students will need for the future-they work cooperatively, they think visually, they work creatively, and it let's them apply all the skills that they learn in school and create projects/productsthat are professional and give them pride. The synthesis of all these things together is what is going to make them "culture builders".
