Session description

In a time when after-school clubs are difficult, our video productions teams have come up with ways to plan, record and create school bulletins throughout the school day to help keep our campus connected as a community. Learn how they do it, then bring the approach back to your school.

Purpose & objective

The purpose of this presentation is to help educators, coaches, and principals see how hosting a student-led, school-wide video bulletin for their campus is truly possible without teachers spending hours and hours of their precious time creating the videos themselves.

The objectives for this presentation include:
* seeing weekly bulletin examples from students at the elementary school level and the middle school level by interacting with the two schools' YouTube channels,
* seeing how the elementary school teams use templates and Google Classroom to stay organized throughout the season,
* seeing how the middle school student commissioners take the initiative in choosing video production programs each year as a way to design the season's productions
*provide suggestions for video production programs, including those with free tirals and with paid subscriptions, so they can have their own students explore, decide, and propose which works best for their production team.

Outline

Participants will arrive to see examples of student-led video bulletins from both the elementary and the middle school levels. Video examples will run continuously throughout the presentation period.
Presenters will share templates, forms, and video productions tools used by students over the last six to eight years to support school-wide weekly bulletins. Participants can either scan a QR code for resources and move on to other poster sessions, or stay to interact with presenters to ask clarifying questions and learn tips, tricks, and pitfalls of student-led productions.
