This was a great website to see what creative potential students of all ages have. The first video that I watched was called the "Yes No Recycling Show", and it was created by La Costa Heights Elementary School. This video was creative, entertaining, and most importantly informative! I recycle at home, work, and out in public and sometimes I am confused to what can go in the recycling bin and what can not. What a great idea to make a catchy music video to teach people of all ages the yes and nos of recycling.
The other video that I watched was "Words Hurt". This video was created by Mission Middle in Escondido. The message was "Words hurt. Think before you speak." This video had an impact on me and I can see the power behind the message benefiting a lot of students and teaching them how words can strongly effect some more than others. We should all be more positive towards one and other and really think before we speak.
IVE videos are a fun way for students to get a message out in a friendly and competitive way. I was pleasantly surprised at the technological ability of K-12 graders and it would be fun for a class to enter their video and make an impact on people in this community.
I think that watching these videos has been really inspiring. It is so great to see students of all ages becoming so involved. I for one am impressed by there technological ability and I think that is a sign of the times. Many of the younger students have really grown up with technology and it shows through their videos.I also think the topics that they have chosen are relevant to what is going on in their schools.
