Student-generated video and film-making

In groups, share your experiences with:

• creating video with students in the classroom

• working with developing teachers to help them create video with their students.

In each case, what resources did you use? Did you create your own?

How successful was it?

English is Everywhere

• film-making competition for F1-3 students in Hong Kong

Implications of a DAMS for the TDU

Using a DAMS would help us:

• store student-generated video for use in marketing

• integrate the video into courses the teaching centre is developing

• share the video with other centres to promote the work of the TDU

• share re-branded versions of the online and F2F materials with other centres.
