Empowering Students with Documentary Filmmaking with George Mayo, Joel Malley, and Brian Paccione TTT 283 - 2.8.12 [47:47m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | DownloadPaul Allison was so inspired by George Mayo’s “conversation” at Educon 2.4 the last weekend of January http://educon24.org/conversations/Empowering_Students_Through_Documentary_Filmmaking that we invited him and his filmmaking colleague, Joel Malley to join us for this episode of Teachers Teaching Teachers. (Please subscribe: http://teachersteachingteachers.org/?feed=rss2 )
George and Joel talk about their work with students making student-directed documentaries on self-chosen topics. Scott Shelhart also joins to ask questions from an elementary school teacher’s perspective and to show us a couple of videos made by George’s middle school students and Joel’s high school students.
