Volunteers to try out a Document Camera in their Classroom

Dear Colleagues,

We are looking for 2 teachers to pilot document cameras in their classroom this year.  Based on recommendations from other schools, we are suggesting the:


Lumens DC125 Ladibug 30fps HD Lightweight Document Camera





Please email Kim if you are interested in piloting one this year.
kconlin@canacad.ac.jp


Many are familiar with the possibilities document cameras offer.  There are too many to mention, however learning engagements might include: 
  • interactive read-aloud 
  • word study (looking at authentic passages)
  • showing student work
  • working with 3D manipulatives in maths
  • doing an experiment 

We ask that the two volunteers will either model a few learning activities (live or video) and also give leadership feedback on the uses and effectiveness for improving student learning.
