2010 Gubernatorial Forum

Last week Prepare Maine.org hosted a Gubernatorial Forum and our Nokomis Warrior Broadcasting students helped provide technical support for event. We had six students located at the high school who moderated a statewide backchannel with over 100 students and teachers from across the state. Two more students manned a tech support help line take calls on a laptop using Google Voice.

At the event in Bangor we had two students involved, one live blogged the event here:

and the other asking the candidates a question.

The Flood of '87

An example of one of our video projects. One student wrote the script, another narrated and another edited the video. It's an interesting way for the kids to learn to work together and how their part of the creative effort goes toward a larger goal.

The Tech Curve Episode 1 - The Mac Book

Some of the students in my broadcasting class are creating a weekly technology help show for students and teachers. This was the first outing and I think went very well!
