Technology Club
A Technology Club is a good way to bring your tech savvy students together and also a good way to introduce those not so tech savvy students to those who are. It is important to let the students drive most of the projects and allow them with almost all of the responsibility. As the coordinator of the club, you are to facilitate, monitor and guide the students through the process.
I have recently created a technology club at my school and have learned a lot. The students went around and interviewed teachers about their experience in our building. The students put these videos into iMovie and added music and effects. They loved it!
The main reason I created the club was to bring students together. It worked! The students who were not seen much together walking the school came together nicely and were able to create something great.
Next year I have big plans. I am going to have the group interview the 6th grade students about their experience at Osborne, their most memorable moments and their plans for the future. I also would like the students to get clips of students learning and pictures around the building for the students to watch during their lunch periods.
