Technology and Innovation

Another way to teach video is to put the students completely in charge. This works best with one child or a very small group. I learned this approach while working with critically ill children in the hospital. The goal was not to teach video techniques so much as to allow the children to express themselves through video. Whether playacting superheroes or talking about the boredom of living in a hospital, the children found dealing with illness a little easier. The quality of these videos wasn’t as good as it would have been under strict creative supervision, but the children had more fun while learning about video.
