Video Observations in the Classroom

Cedar Ridge Elem. - 6th gr.
What are authentic tasks, and what is necessary for classroom experiences to be more authentic?
The students teach and learn from each other. A very hands-on approach of learning is used. Also, a direct-active form of experience is used. The students are involved in directing a news video, while also using video editing software to cut the footage. Editing skills are something that I can relate to as I have been an avid video editor for some years now. I use Sony Vegas Video 5.0 and DVD Architect 2.0, which are old and outdated but work just fine for me. With technology, staying current is a very difficult task to stay on top of. Technology is just advancing so fast...it's crazy!
